Size and Space

The International Space Station (ISS) is literally 1000X closer to me than the moon in the following photos (~250 miles vs ~250,000 miles for the moon)

How close, how far, how small, how big is certainly relative

Two photos I took last night, the first has the ISS passing in front of the moon. Do you even see it? It's a bright dot near the far right edge of the moon. In the second photo, the ISS appears as a "smeared" star in the lower right of the photo

Be Still Life

Sometimes life, or certain aspects of life, slow down, almost to the point it's still.

These past couple weeks have been one of those times for me. While certain parts of life continue at a frantic pace, the most important are almost in freeze frame.

Another phone photo taken today
