I hate pictures like this, but I love this picture. The cloud like a blanket serves as the perfect launchpad for those blearious stars... mirrored by man's feeble attempts at twinkling below, which in this picture are afforded some dignity.

Incredible scene. I maybe would have preferred a horizontal crop to really make use of the color in the hills and the clouds but I've never taken this cool a photo so what do I know. Awesome.
