Dude, I can totally see my house in that picture! 🙂 Actually, I can see a very faint spot of light that MAY be Portales, Clovis, and Cannon AFB combined, a little bit east of the much larger smudge of light that is Albuquerque and Santa Fe.
Anyone else notice that WordPress snow looks like a meteor shower as it goes across the picture?
Really indicative of electrified areas. I hate the fact we have so much light pollution that we can’t see the stars as well as our planet can be seen. But it is still a beautiful place to see, night or day.
The squirrel head was a real treat. He’s currently regarding a remote controlled plastic mouse we bought for him today with some interest – I think the feather on it’s tail is attractive.
Yes — the brightest spots are either the most densely populated (say, Europe and Japan) or using the most energy (eastern North America). But look at Africa (gives a new meaning to that old cliche “the dark continent). These are definitely pictures that say a whole lot!

I agree about the light pollution Noelle, but then, humans, like all animals with eyes, are afraid of what the dark is hiding 😀

Except for my cat. He likes to hunt in the dark and brings home interesting stuff.

Thinking of the stark contrast between the congested lit areas and the seemingly uninhabited dark areas Audrey? 🙂
