“The reason birds can fly and we can't is simply because they have perfect faith, for to have faith is to have wings.” ...
The more often we see the things around us - even the beautiful and wonderful things - the more they become invisible to us. That is why we often take for granted the beauty of this world: the flowers, the trees, the birds, the clouds - even those we love. Because we see things so often, we see them less and less.
I love these shots of birds when the wings are all the way forward like that. It's a pose we can never really see with the eye when we watch them fly. It's just an amazing thing, the flight of birds. Also you captured some nice looking sky!
