I don’t often try to take pictures of the night sky – I just don’t have the equipment for it. But a few days ago, we were eating dinner, and the view out our window was a conjunction of Mars, Venus and the new moon. It was breathtaking, and as they sunk lower on the horizon, the moon started to glow orange. I couldn’t resist trying:
3 When I look at the night sky and see the work of your fingers— the moon and the stars you set in place—
4 what are people that you should think about them, mere mortals that you should care for them? (Psalm 8.3, 4, NLT)
The heavens proclaim the glory of God. The skies display his craftsmanship. (Psalm 19.1, NLT)
