Great shot Sam, so well exposed and I like the silhouettes of the rocks and the bit of cloud. "V"

With a little imagination, I see the profile of a person's head, the nose being prominent, in the lower right corner as that person lays there and stares up at the gorgeous night sky.

The Valley of Fire offers such magnificent silhouetted shapes at night! And I agree...the planets give this a celestial feel to the image. Beautiful!

Well done Sam! V

Great twi image Sam - but I would have to disagree about the third planet; most of the terrain we saw was more Martian like.

a strong sense of the deeper space here...riveting scene that keeps us all in context and perspective....sophisticated work Sam...V
