  2. Wow. A wonderful tour through the fingerwork of God. We looked at these together. The star forming pillar - a favorite. How fitting that the California Nebula should be red. Although green would do well too, as in a watermelon - Marxist ideology hidden behind a green cover.

  5. My good friend, The Kid — passed away on 3 Jan 2023. He loved pictures of space. When I visit here in the future, until someone takes the blog down, I will view these space pictures with fondness in the memory of my friend Bob — a truly good man.
