Barlad Expedition 2022 (21)
By Andrei Dorian Gheorghe (astro-photo-poem) and Florin Alexandru Stancu (design)
A strange feeling when daylight interfered with Ciprian Vintdevara's astrophotographs from the Barlad Observatory, creating the illusion for any viewer that he was becoming part of them!
So I wrote a series of three other astropoems, my last unofficial awards for the one who made the Barlad 2022 expedition possible.
PICTURES AT A CIPRIAN VINTDEVARA EXHIBITION
ABOUT M1
A great supernova (SN 1054)
that over time lost its pride,
becoming a nebula (Crab),
the first Messier object
and a celestial artwork between
the horns of Taurus.
I've always liked a cosmic handshake
with the Crab's tender pincers.
ABOUT COMET C/2011 L4 PANSTARRS
I was happy to live
a love story with a
heavenly goddess!
ABOUT M57
Only when I arrived
in the constellation of the Lyre
did I understand that the Ring Nebula
is the best theater
for the music of star Vega!
