The big dipper and friends. First, I went and photographed the sky without much thought. I was thinking if I could see it in my lens view that it would work, proving that I am still quite the amateur. Disappointed in my shots, I came inside and briefly searched the internet until I came across "increase your iso" and eureka. I darted back outside with my tripod and camera. And voila, you can see what I saw and more. Its amazing all the light that we can't see with the naked eye because of the light pollution, and this picture is evidence as such. It may not look like much, or it may look like something out of a text book, but I am in awe that tonight I was able to witness the great beauty of the heavens and capture its essence.
