Studio8 - Uniting the Arts

Watching the Geminids end their long journey this morning, I was struck by the fact that their trek started and ended in fire. I took no snaps, made no maps and I certainly can't explain the majesty of the event as it unfolded - except to say that as far as visual arts go, it was a show stopper. No artist ever captured a race so well. No brush wielding mage could define the tracery or the colors they shed. No man apod could travel so lightly. Only an imagineer can parse the course they traversed and fathom the seeds they planted here.
