2 QUICK SHOTS

Sheer elegance !
Please click on the picture for full screen view.

The first thing you would like to add to your body are wings. This is every one's fascination. Mine too, I always dream of flying, my reasons are different, I don't have a passport.
Leonardo daVinci tried but broke his wooden wings and himself in the process, Perhaps he didn't have a passport too. But where do we go for such streamlined aerodynamics and hollow bone structure ?
just flap your wings and off you go ZZZZOONK ! gone.

    good to see you back.

    longing to fly is much a metaphor for me - to escape. Looking at the second photo I am reminded - while it's true that to fly you must flap your wings - you also need to stick your neck out, LOL!

    I have been using Olympus Film cameras all these years, I had to spend a lot for film and processing. I am traveling more now since I turned digital. I can't afford sophixticated digital SLRs. I have nikon 8700 and a panasonic Lumix, never have been possessive about my things, every body, m friends and students keep using my cameras.
