Description

I took this photo in August 2012 during the Perseid Meteor shower. I am so happy I got the chance to capture a small part of sky's immensity. Now you can own it too.

Quote, although often attributed to Galileo, is from Sarah Williams' poem The Old Astronomer to His Pupil.

~Though my soul may set in darkness, it will rise in perfect light;
I have loved the stars too fondly to be fearful of the night.~
