Love this photo from SciencePorn: a night in Yellowknife, Canada. Here is the original.
Even the Water King loves the photo. Yes, thanks to electronic wizardry I am masquerading as the Water King. Former student Andrew Funk, the creator, emailed me a JPEG that had been collecting dust on his hard drive. He created it for my retirement party at the University of New Mexico in 2006.
