Picture of the Day - 3 April 2009

This is just a picture I took someplace. Where should be easy to guess. True geeks will also be able to identify each of the prominent man-made structures on the horizon, and determine which direction I was facing when I took the picture.

As always, you can click the picture for a larger version.

Keck and Subaru telescopes on Mauna Kea, Hawaii. Don't know the direction, but is the pic from the Saddle road?

The location's right, but the picture wasn't taken from Saddle Road, and you're 1/3 on the IDs.

The other two telescopes would be Gemini North (middle), and the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope (right). I don't know what exact position the picture was taken from, but it was south-east from the telescopes.
