Holy mackerel Phil! What an orb in space! That has got to look so magical when in the ISS......the astronauts must have some incredible shades to wear for this sun :-)

Nick will love this shot. Thanks for cleaning it up and re-working it so I can enjoy it!

Art is the perception of the creator. Meaning is the perception of the viewer. acceptance is the perception of society.
