Weather domes

I had the chance to go to Kitt Peak National Observatory today to prepare to install a night sky brightness meter. While on the roof of one of the buildings there I took this shot of the dome of the 84-inch (2.1 meter) telescope:


The view reminded me of one of my favorite old Palomar pics:


 I know, my shot doesn't really compare to the vintage one, but that's the best you'll get out of me today.
