Leaving Chris World?

Why not bring back a souvenir?

Terra Firma

I've been quite sick all week and for the must part down for the count.

Tonight however, I went out and collected some moon images.
I've been on the whole learn Quantum Mechanics and Gen Rel kick again.
(Seems to happen about the same time every year)

It's perhaps fitting that I'm photographing the moon as I learn
more about Einstein's General Relativity. I thought about this as
I peered at the craters long the dark edge. I also noted my photos
looked a lot like the earlier Apollo ones and for a sec I imagine myself
on the lunar craft looking through some target scope as I approached
for a landing. (The image was very shaky. It lent itself well to the illusion.)

All of this while standing, firmly on terra firma squinting through a
dusty eye piece.
