From the Northern to the Southern Cross
Image Credit & Copyright: Nicholas Buer
Explanation: There is a road that connects the Northern to the Southern Cross but you have to be at the right place and time to see it. The road, as pictured above, is actually the central band of our Milky Way Galaxy; the right place, in this case, is dark Laguna Cejar in Salar de Atacama of Northern Chile; and the right time was in early October, just after sunset. Many sky wonders were captured then, including the bright Moon, inside theMilky Way arch; Venus, just above the Moon; Saturn and Mercury, just below the Moon; the Large and Small Magellanic Clouds satellite galaxies, on the far left; red airglow near the horizon on the image left; and the lights of small towns at several locations across the horizon. One might guess that composing this 30-image panorama would have been a serene experience, but for that one would have required earplugs to ignore the continuedbrays of wild donkeys.
el dispensador dice:
¿crees haber visto todo?...
algo te has perdido,
seguro que lo importante,
es lo que no has visto,
no importa el banco,
ni lo imprevisto,
aquel "te amo"...
sonó a vacío,
no hubo mirada,
sentimiento perdido,
sólo se obliga,
quien es su propio testigo,
no puedes volver,
sin haberte ido,
descubre tu cielo,
para eso has venido,
de eso se trata... el haber vivido...
si te vas sin tu cielo,
nada has aprendido.
