It speaks loudly of the problems of Urbanization and light pollution WRT sky gazing and the importance of location for astronomy

Yes, please. I know it's not the most aesthetically pleasing photo but it gets an important point across. It would also be interesting to digitally alter the photo and simulate a dark sky and the lights out with a hover. Kind of hard to do, though. I'm actually amazed one can even capture Orion with all those lights.

But you forgot to vote, Judy.

Sorry. (One can't see the vote count if one hasn't voted already.)
