NASA's earth science department contacted me a while back about purchasing a photo I took, for one of their publications. They used the photo on the cover (bottom row, first on the left) and page 36. I'm quite pleased.

Nice and congrats any photos on moon landscape for Moon Base Canada
He did post one pic that showed stars in the sky at night, something NASA couldn't accomplish on their trip to the moon so they should cut him a cheque just for the info on how he accomplished that feat, .... a big cheque at that.

I wonder if the OP was thinking what the caption promoted when he was taking the shot? lol

Hey goon. Why don't you take your brand of dumb somewhere else, and let the adults congratulate one of our own.
