"My God, it's full of stars!"

Our very first visit to an International Dark Sky Park and the experience still left us in awe!

 

I recognize fully that this photo is a joke to all the astrophotographers out there! 😏

 

This was just a fun experience for me - been there, and done that!

"My god, it's full of stars" is a phrase associated with a scene from the 1968 Stanley Kubrick film "2001: A Space Odyssey" in which the protagonist David Bowman is traveling through the star gate created by the monolith orbiting Jupiter and the awed expression face that he gives.

Thank you for not laughing at my lack of skillset in this genre!

 

PS: The camera sensor picked up so many more stars than our naked eyes could see!
