broken necks feather weights press the walls
be my love
we will be gods on nite flights
with only one promise
only one way to fall"...

One of my favourite artist, along with U2, Simple Minds and the Waterboys and.. Patti Smith.. and this song in particular is divine... there's so many things in the air when you listened at this music, his voice...
Your picture is wonderful b&w shot... something mystical about it...

A fabulous photograph.
Not only that, but you've gained kudos for the inclusion of the Bowie lyrics (Although originally Scott Walker recorded the track), as I have been a lifelong fan

You knew to benefit the best from the climatic conditions by your post-procesing Bravo ;)
How do you make for often having a bird (which resembles a corbel) in your framing ?

@Pixim: Thanks so much for your kind words. You know, I don't know, perhaps it's just my love of crows and ravens that keep me watching for them in the frame.

I have always loved your BW processed photos, and this one is no exception! Loved how you captured the bird flying by at that very moment, sweet!

What a fantastic, mystical shot! I can well imagine mystics travelling and conversing with the bird (raven?). Beautiful work.
