Description

_{Let me take a fly with you

Across the sky, slicing out small clouds

Let me go high where my problems look small

I should close my eyes but I see for the very first time

Let me get some air beneath my human wings

The wind throwing me where my mind never been before

Let me take a fly with you

Just for once take me with you, your bird watcher

This was taken near Cassis, situated on the Mediterranean coast, about 20 km east from Marseille, France.

I was driving around the French Riviera when I was visiting Marseille for an exhibition I did there. I noticed this guy standing on the ledge while driving so I pulled out the car. While getting closer a flock of birds escaped my footsteps and while surprised I was able to capture that, and it gave the frame a beautiful dynamics. I converted the frame to B&W and toned it a bit.
