        the government needs to support your agency, for protecting our open spaces, and/or for any info they need to send out (whenever.) 
Your work is thrilling, just thrilling.

        The longer you look at it, the more details start emerging. Moon, clouds, horizon, even some trees in deep shadow. It really grows on ya, in every sense of the word.
