Bobby, we are in tears of joy for the beautiful photograph that you took. It is the most peaceful setting that we have ever seen someone capture. Loving the outdoors as we do, that would be a very special place for us. You captured everything from the sky, stars, etc. Our love always......Grandma & Grandpa Crow

I love the simplicity of this wooden structure which could just as easily be situated in any of the Nordic countries. It's timeless design situated alone with the odd Pine tree under the deep blue canopy of the universe produces a feeling of calm and safety to the viewer. The lighting has a suggestion of a Magritte painting about it.
Lovely. Thank You Robert.

Looks like a great shot of the Big Dipper, too

From the chilly night air the interior light reflected on the ground,on the rocks beckons me inside but the star strewn sky holds me spell bound...

photo draws me into the plot, planning my moves thru the site, piqueing my curiosity of W h er e it is. I know ...........Ive been there.............. in my dreams.

overhead a canopy of stars as night creeps in and you can almost hear the cricket choruses in their grass gazebos.

I love to camp -- mainly b/c I love the night skys.

I can just feel it....

Awesome!

I look at this and think that with all the maddening things occuring around the world that I would be safe there. Alone, yet with the world so to speak.

This picture makes me want to be there to see the beautiful night sky. The bright light inside the house makes it look so warm and inviting. Great picture.

This is a beautiful photo. I like the lighting and the star-studded sky. The angle at which it was shot is neat too.

There is something "close encounter" about this shot, I love it!

A very nice capture of the home and the light it emits as it stands in its place in the universe with the light that it emits. I wish I lived there.
