not mine and not sure who to credit - but I really liked the image so sharing anyway...

Beautiful image of Svalbard from space, taken by Svalbard acquaintance Jannicke Mikkelsen <3 #Svalbard #space #JannickeMikkelsen #visualsociology

Wait, look who brought a polar bear to space! 😅 🌏 💫 🚀 Love love love this! You are amazing, Jannicke Mikkelsen!! Congratulations on the successful launch! 👏👏👏

Sun is still well below the horizon here in Longyearbyen, Svalbard (won't be back until mid Feb) but ice crystals in the sky reflected back from the red spectrum yesterday. Just beautiful!

This image, Kelly Latimore's 'Christ in the Rubble,' made me stop my scrolling and take the time to reflect. It is all too easy to shut out the craziness of what is going on around the world. But we shouldn't forget quite so quickly. Here's to hoping we can effect change, small and large, next year!
