[![Imgur](https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/53320527748_7dfb852a12_b.jpg "Flag") ](https://www.flickr.com/photos/45215582@N06/53320527748/) I don’t know what to make of this. These people have a lovely home, several vehicles, and an RV. At their gate they have hung an American flag and a Trump flag. The American flag’s in decent condition, but the other one has become an absolute rag. It once said, TRUMP Take America Back, but it now says TR Take I can’t understand what message these people are trying to send by having these torn ribbons dangle in front of their house, when they could easily afford a replacement. (I wish I’d have gotten a picture better showing the extent of the damage, but didn’t want to get any closer.) ---

This is Messier M92, a globular cluster just outside the Milky Way. It’s very old, and 26,000 light years away. There’s the equivalent pf about 200,000 solar masses in the cluster.

So I was looking through my archives for an entry for this month’s photo competition, and I found this. This is a natural hot spring inside a cave in Iceland. But really I just whish I had remembered this photo for the “light and shadow” theme.
