LIGHT POLLUTION IS HARD TO FIND IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE

I took a trip with dear friends to Death Valley. It’s a beautiful and haunting place in its own right, but in the dead of night, I was compelled to stare upwards beyond our tiny planet. We were lucky and had clear skies and no moon… it made for some outstanding stargazing. Contemplating the enormity of the Universe is so humbling.

I didn’t have the right equipment to take perfectly crisp photos of the stars, but they turned out well enough to see some details.

Remember to look up at the stars and not down at your feet. Try to make sense of what you see and wonder about what makes the universe exist. Be curious. And however difficult life may seem, there is always something you can do and succeed at. It matters that you don’t just give up.
