transfer to the part of my mind that tells me
what I'm seeing.

Since I use them as a screen saver, and the picture keeps changing, I sometimes just sit and contemplate them. I try to get a sense of the time and distance scales and how miniscule our individual lives and concerns are in the big picture, which is the actual picture.
