Description

20210801- (CYG/LYR) Milky Way - What do you see when you look up at the sky? 

What was the experience
Most of us, when we look up, only see the major stars of the constellations … 😟
Light pollution turns our night skies into milky skies, instead of being able to see the Milky Way 😞
With the help of light pollution filters, we can capture a glimpse of the beauty of the Milky Way, wishing we could see these wonders of scattered nebulae with our naked eyes 🤩 We can only dream of the Milky Way beauty captured by our cameras
But, in my imagination I see stars exploding, gas nebula expanding and lone debris and dust whirling around in the vastness of space … 😍
