Sunrise, Sunset


Many many thanks to my cousin Deb, in Buffalo, for sharing this awesome photo.

Here's the note that accompanied it:

This is the sunset at the North Pole with the moon at its closest point last week. A scene you will probably never get to see in person, so take a moment and enjoy.

And, you also see the sun below the moon . An amazing photo and not one easily duplicated.

You may want to pass it on to others so they can enjoy it.

The Chinese have a saying that goes something like this:

'When someone shares with you something of value, you have an obligation to share it with others!'

I just did. Your turn.

Arrrrrgh.

MiDC took one look and said "I'm pretty sure that's a hoax." He said, to his eye, it looked like it was created with something called Blender.

Then he instructed me on how to see what was obvious to him. He spoke of "texture" and "structure".

I begin to understand the pride teachers say they feel when their students surpass them. I'm bursting with said aforementioned pride.

Snopes says Monkeyboy is right:

What the heck, it's still pretty.
MiDC wishes to add that "It's still good, for a beginners work."
