I felt free to take the picture of the freedoms on display in this scene.....
There cannot have been many who did not know that it was the 75th anniversary of the D Day landings.
This image was a complete fluke in it's origins,
i had shot 66715 "Valour" on the 6S94 Wembley-Irvine
( Caledonian Paper ) china clay slurry tanks.
Of course the freedom of the press springs to mind.
Any how, i thought to take a departing shot, "power on" after a crew change stop, and on reviewing it, i noticed this scene and cropped it out of the bigger picture.
Dyrhólaey (Icelandic for door hill island), formerly known by seamen as Cape Portland, is a small promonotory located on the south coast of Iceland, not far from the village Vík. It was formerly an island of volcanic origin, which is also known by the Icelandic word eyja meaning island.

Dyrhólaey (isl. „Türlochinsel“) ist eine 115 m hoch aufragende Halbinsel im Süden Islands, etwa 6 km westlich von Vík í Mýrdal.
Das Kap, das zum Meer hin schroff abfällt, ist vor 80.000 Jahren bei einem submarinen Vulkanausbruch als Insel entstanden. Noch heute kann man leichten, am Gipfel aufsteigenden Schwefelverbindungsgeruch bemerken.
"Freedom Arches
The Citizens of Toronto dedicate these arches to the
millions who struggled including Canadians, to gain
and defend freedom and to the tens of millions who
suffered and died for the lack of it. May all that we do
be worthy of them. Only in freedom can the Human Spirit soar.
Against the human drive for freedom nothing can long succeed. This plaque is mounted on a slab of the Berlin Wall."

Le Phare des Poulains, Belle Ile En Mer
This reminds me of my early childhood and happy times. I now know that in the near future I will go away for a better world. A world with no pain I imagine. It will be the last image that I will think of before I drink the beverage that will free me.
La foto me mola, a pesar del desenfoque, ruido... etc..
Me encanta tener la posibilidad de hacer este tipo de fotos.

A shiny new year, full of promise, is here!
Caged Bird
by Maya Angelou
A free bird leaps
on the back of the wind
and floats downstream
till the current ends
and dips his wing
in the orange sun rays
and dares to claim the sky.
But a bird that stalks
down his narrow cage
can seldom see through
his bars of rage
his wings are clipped and
his feet are tied
so he opens his throat to sing.
The caged bird sings
with a fearful trill
of things unknown
but longed for still
and his tune is heard
on the distant hill
for the caged bird
sings of freedom.
The free bird thinks of another breeze
and the trade winds soft through the sighing trees
and the fat worms waiting on a dawn bright lawn
and he names the sky his own.
But a caged bird stands on the grave of dreams
his shadow shouts on a nightmare scream
his wings are clipped and his feet are tied
so he opens his throat to sing.
The caged bird sings
with a fearful trill
of things unknown
but longed for still
and his tune is heard
on the distant hill
for the caged bird
sings of freedom.
