Polaris

A nothing photo for sure but it was the first (and only) time I have ever seen the north star, quite a few people on this planet take it for granted but for me it has always been out of sight.
On my last night in the Philippines we had a lovely couple of drinks near Daraga church on the top of the hill. Mayon, which was behind us in this photo nearly blocked us seeing Polaris, which soon was obscured by cloud anyway but at least I saw it. What was extra special was seeing the Southern Cross and the Pointers at the other end of the sky, seeing the icons of both hemisphere at the same time was special to me, and the night was special to Olivia and myself.
