To the sky, from the sky.
Back at Letchworth State Park on Friday. The snow was falling with a gentle breeze; temperature was just shy of 30F. It was beautiful as I headed out on the trail.

I love this image that beautifully resembles an artist's rendering of
all the hardware that maintains the systemic health and integration
of our retinas, seen from the point of view of the rods and cones at
the very back (or bottom) of our eyes as we gaze up through our own
neural and vascular and fluid networks at the divine complexity of the
wonderful universe that gave us eyes that work like this and minds to
make cameras that see so differently than our eyes do yet so similarly
that this image is like a metaphor except for the bizarre fact that the
light receptive parts of our rods and cones point away from our pupils,
like a camera pointed down at a still pool of water that reflects unique
snowflakes falling into it like the Christmas Miracle of superpowers we
like to call microscopic & X-ray vision or just sight, for short. Bravo, Steve!
