A Black Forest Night
Homepage | Facebook | Google+ A couple of weeks ago I went out to one of my favorite locations: the Black Forest. But this time I went there after sunset and stayed far beyond midnight. My goal was to see if it was dark enough to observe the stars and the Milky Way. In Germany there is a lot of light pollution so it is very hard to find really dark places. But I wasn't disappointed: First as a faint band, then clearer and clearer I could see the Milky Way stretching magnificently over the landscape. I felt very humble to witness nature's beauty so vividly that night. It really makes you feel how much greater it is than anything we created here on earth.
