Wait...my eyes were closed. Redo...redo

OK people, this time no 'rabbit ears', keep your tongues in, eyes straight at the camera - wait, should we use the flash or not??


Seriously, nice pic Barb. Really awe-inspiring.

I'm the guy on the left waving.

If I may say so Steve, it might pay you to raise your kilt up a tad.

I pray for one last landing on the globe that gave me birth
Let me feast my eyes on the fleecy skies and the cool green hills of Earth.

Pictures like that really help put things in a new perspective. And that's just about as cool as you can get!

Am I the only one thinking what a waste of money? Surely all that money could be put to better use? There are people dying of hunger today on our own streets. Photos like that do make you think, though.

I ask that we please not engage in discussion of this topic. I can imagine that a lot of strong feelings would be expressed on both sides of the issue, and I did not post this remarkable photo to trigger a contentious discussion. If it goes that way, I will ask the mods to delete the thread.

Wonderful pic, Barb. You do seem to have the best of the bunch crossing your desk. Thanks for sharing them with us from time-to-time.

The photo of the Earth from the Moon gave us a new perception and this one really helps helps put our place in the Solar System into perspective.

Thanks for sharing Barb.

I don't know. It looks like Mars to me.
