It speaks loudly of the problems of Urbanization and light pollution WRT sky gazing and the importance of location for astronomy

Yes, please. I know it's not the most aesthetically pleasing photo but it gets an important point across. It would also be interesting to digitally alter the photo and simulate a dark sky and the lights out with a hover. Kind of hard to do, though. I'm actually amazed one can even capture Orion with all those lights.

Sorry. (One can't see the vote count if one hasn't voted already.)
