@MLClark well said, and very important. Years ago, I took a canoe trip on the Concord River in Massachusetts sponsored by the Appalachian Mountain Club where we took visually impaired folks and described the scenery. For those who had been blind from birth or an early age, it was a challenge to find the words to describe what we were seeing. What was especially noteworthy, though, was to hear them describe what they felt and heard and smelled and trying to correlate those to the surroundings.

What a beautiful mutual gain of an experience.
When it comes to the abstracted beauty of a cosmic shot, for instance, I find that I *do* have other sensory tools to describe it, but they go to rust when we're so reliant on the image to speak for itself. I get to see the world through new perspectives when describing it for others - as you no doubt did, too!
What a special memory. Thanks for sharing it. 🤗
