As much as I can't stand the Moon -- being the single largest source of light pollution -- that was pretty nice. Beautiful, in fact.

Sometimes images and video footage can be a source of inspiration. I have Fred Vanderhaven's timelapse with the Asha soundtrack in my favourites. If I need a lift I will watch it. This video will be added to the list. Thanks for the link.

That is a beautiful video. I've bookmarked the original. Thanks for posting.

The music is very nice ... but the main melody (violin, or synth version thereof) is highly reminiscent of Nickelback's Far Away. In fact, I thought it was an "unplugged" instrumental version until I re-read the APOD page.
