The Milky Way galaxy is from where you beamed down,

Smoky Mirror Eyes, I was startled when I saw you, there was no sound

You looked funny as you tasted my icy milk and tender cookies, so oddly glum

You took my heart once we finished the dessert, a truly strange added sum

Then in a poof you left, just the crime leftovers of snickerdoodle crumbs settled in a smoky mound

My photo of the Orion Nebula was taken in my backyard in Petaluma, California. It is composed of 60 images at 60 seconds each. I stacked them all to reduce noise and bring out the amazing details you see in the nebula . I think it is one of my better images. I hope you enjoy it. I’m on IG @bryangoffphoto Stop by and say hi!
