The lonely sky

Dunno why I called it that - I suddenly came over all poetic - hope it's nothing serious   ::)

Dave, you captured the feelings rather than the subjects in the frame.  Poetic, yes.

Akira - thanks. I think the solitary bird does convey a feeling of loneliness.

Dave, I do think the flying bird is an important element in the frame, but I feel the loneliness from the entire image.  So, the harmony created by the part of the mountain, the cloudy sky and the bird feels essential to me.
