Geia saaasss.....(Have all good health: the english translation)

Thank u all so much for your nice words. I am very happy that u all like my images and i promise u more wonders of the Universe. U give me power to continue with more passsion and energy. I have hear so many good words about the Southern Hemisphere skies and i know that your sky is much much better and clearer that of the Northern. Wish i could visit you with my telescope and see the wonders of this part of the sky. Thanks again!
