    Crazy little thing called love.
    I'm trying to determine at exactly what point in time Modern music lost it's character.
    In the meantime, please enjoy some of my favorite images from last week. Juldmgte.jpg Jul2Sunrise.jpg Jul4CrescentMoon.jpg Solar Halo.jpg Jul7LD4.jpg July8LD5IG.jpg JulyAltai.jpg Strn,Jptr.jpg SneakyBastard.jpg ValenciaSeamstress.jpg

    It's not all that bleak. You may be familiar with the Bortle scale, which rates light pollution from 1-9, with 1 being the darkest sky (9 would be Piscataway, N.J.).
    The center of Dumaguete is Class 5. Valencia is Class 4. You only need go as far as Dauin and Zamboanguita to get Class2 skies.
    If you lived in Phoenix, you would have to get outside the circle formed by Black Canyon City, Apache Junction, Casa Grande and Palo Verde to get Class 5 skies! But at least the drive would be very pleasant :rolleyes: (speaking of which, Lake Pleasant is now Class 6! 40 years ago it would have been a Class 2).
