"Ad Astra per Disciplina et Scientia" means "To the stars through study/discipline and knowledge/science" (at least that's what I believe it means, not actually ever having studied Latin). It seemed appropriate given my return to college and my studies in computer science and engineering. This Facebook cover photo was cropped from a larger photo of the Sacramento River Marina, where these gulls were flying around searching for food. The sun flare was Photoshopped into the picture to better tie in with the quotation.

This composite digital image by Will Murray ("Willscrlt") was completed at 11:39 PM on Monday, 9 April 2012. The included photo (DSC00971) of flying gulls was taken by Will Murray ("Willscrlt") at 10:35 AM on 19 January 2009 at the Sacramento Marina on Marina View Dr.
