Cosmic Multicultural Bucharest in the Pandemic (198):
GAM 2022 - Last Urban Orion
By Andrei Dorian Gheorghe (astro-photo-poem) and Florin Alexandru Stancu (design)
April 6, 2022.
As the winter stars began to descend
to the southern hemisphere,
I decided to photograph the constellation Orion
for the last time that spring.
But first I greeted the setting Sun
across the boulevard.
Then I greeted the Moon
who was still in her teens.
Being a special event for me,
I chose to catch Orion in the Children’s World Park
between the branches of electrically lit trees,
with the remarkable participation of the Moon.
Then I took a step to the side
and even the brightest star, Sirius,
joined the scenery.
Such things only happen when you
Listen to the call of the deep night.
You have a much better chance of
Finding a new superior light!
