"If we burn our wings
Flying too close to the sun
If the moment of glory
Is over before it's begun
If the dream is won-
Though everything is lost
We will pay the price,
But we will not count the cost."

Neil Peart, Rush
Bravado...Roll The Bones, 1991

From Oak Heights, the setting Milky Way in the west...too bad I walked in front of the camera with my red light on...
From Ogs Bog, mid September 2003. My first discernable results of the North America nebula in Cygnus (NGC7000).
Same Ogs Bog series, North America nebula...better focus and contrast...getting some colour...
