Soul Nebula
Around the time the light in this image from the "Soul Nebula" was emitted, the Sahara Desert was a vibrant savannah with lakes and river systems, and humanity had just established its first proto-city, Eridu, in Mesopotamia (modern day Iraq). It never ceases to amaze me that I can capture these ancient photons from my own back yard!
