I sit here at my computer trying to think of words to describe how impressive this image is to me. The best I can do falls so far short of acceptable that I will not even try... The wonder and awe of an image like this is why I love astronomy so very much. Thank you allowing me the pleasure of seeing it. - D. Mosely
