A Pierrot's Muse

Tuesday 17th August 2010
On a dark night myself and my sister were strolling down the path away from a children's park. As we walked, my gaze travelled upwards until my eyes met the night sky and I met a view that was truly the most beautiful I had ever seen.

The dark sky was filled, quite literally, with the brightest, most dazzling stars. No clouds were in the sky whatsoever and I could even see star clusters.

It was then that I decided that I wanted to take a photo of the sky. I pulled out my mobile phone from my jacket pocket and held it up towards the night sky, pressing the button for the camera. But every time I pressed it, the phone refused to take the picture. I brought the phone back down and inspected it; there seemed to be no problem with it and I decided to try again.

However, to my dismay, when I looked back up to the sky it was day, and the stars had gone.
