Dan, in terms of your intent (re Santa fe) it worked for me - I thought 
of that shot immediately ... but  building is too pretty from what we 
see as audience
for your symbolism to go beyond your own contemplation.  For me the 
contrail spoils the shot geometically.

This year the weather was absolutely beautiful, if a bit hot, as I walked

 I still think it's a Lynyrd Skynyrd  song, but what the hell.
 It's a terrific picture.
 
 The Beatles song doesn't quite have the same interminable, drone-on-forever-oh-god-just-kill-me-now-and-put-me-out-of-my-misery WHINE, although it does seem to aspire to.
 


Actually... I really like the Skynyrd song and thought that the Beatles' Free As A

And this is from someone who generally DETESTS so-called classic rock or Southern

About the only song I really do detest is Freebird. Guaranteed to

The song is one that Paul, George and Ringo put together from some of

Wasn't actually The Beatles as I remember, although that's the way it 
was promoted. Released in 1995, and John Lennon was murdered in 1980.


When Paul, George  Ringo were working on the Beatles Anthology set, 
they obtained some of John's home demo tapes from Yoko. An unfinished 
working version of Free As A Bird with John's vocals was on those tapes.


Paul  George took that into the studio and overdubbed it a'la Sergeant 
Pepper, with Jeff Lynn sitting in as producer.

And come together they did!  I'm guessing that seeing disparate
elements got the mind working - or had you conceived of just this

Thanks Mark  Bruce...

This was one that I did not have a preconceived idea for until I saw

just stood around waiting for a bird to get in the right spot... :-)

Exactly as I had imagined. I could guess that you saw the potential in The 
Bean(?), were aware of the gulls, and just waited and hoped.
Great!
Been there and it's a triumphant feeling!
