Me: A Software Professional

Came across this random piece of information on Sarvjeet's blog.

Pisces (February 19 - March 19)

The people who are just meant to work only in groups. They are selfless and do as you require them to do. They most important thing to be put in them is the "focus" since they get out of doing something when they lose interest. All signs take advantage of Pisces for their work because they like all others to make use of their abilities. Though they are not intellectuals they are very broad minded and good thinkers. Very trustable as long as they are not abused too often by their colleagues.

Stargazing

My interest in astronomy was recently rekindled, mostly because of my impending departure from the light polluted skies of New York. The first time I remember wanting a telescope of my own was when I was in class 12th. I eagerly found out where one could get quality scopes in India, sent them a request for catalogue, received it, saw the prices, and promptly dropped the idea. Then in IIT I once had a chance to look through someone's telescope and the rings of Saturn left me speechless.

Fast forward four years, now I could afford a telescope but New York skies are a dull orange and stars are rarely seen. As I head for clearer and darker skies of California I plan to finally indulge myself. Seven years of waiting... isn't that something!

Enough of the posting, here is an amazing view from amateur telescopes.
