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.
Into the light. Technically one would need to see the eyes or eye of this bird. I opted for wings of freedom in this black and white.

With the very charming April from Kirribilli, and two sensational iced caramel lattes from the chic Oski Cafe on Broughton Street.
Listening to Steve Winwood, one of April's favourite retro artists. I quite like him too, especially the track: 'Night Train'. But here is Steve Winwood with 'Freedom Overspill', from 1986:

"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."
freedom comes in many forms ♥
"It's hard for an educated woman to turn her head off. That's part of the joy of being a submissive. None of the decisions are yours. When you can't refuse anything and can't even move, those voices in your head go silent. All you can do, and all you are permitted to do, is feel.”
Fredom Tower, in it's final stages, so magnificent of a tribute to the inocent, to build such a devine structure. Never Forget...
Looking at freedom as a personal right: Freedom is the right to work out a personal credo. In a sense, freedom is the right to breathe... the right to enough oxygen for personal life... the right to be enlightened or ignorant. I just received Mary Oliver's new book from my dearest friend, Evelyn - Upstream. On the back jacket cover is a quote that I feel must be Oliver's personal credo:
"Sometimes the desire to be lost again, as long ago, comes over me like a vapor. With growth into adulthood, responsibilities claimed me, so many heavy coats. I didn't choose them, I don't fault them, but it took time to reject them. Now in the spring I kneel, I put my face into the packets of violets, the dampness, the freshness, the sense of ever-ness. Something is wrong. I know it, if I don't keep my attention on eternity. May I be the tiniest nail in the house of the universe, tiny but useful. May I stay forever in the stream. May I look down upon the windflower and the bull thistle and the coreopsis, with the greatest respect."
La foto me mola, a pesar del desenfoque, ruido... etc..
Me encanta tener la posibilidad de hacer este tipo de fotos.
Following the Soviet occupation of Latvia in 1940, Latvia was annexed by the Soviet Union and the Freedom Monument was considered for demolition, but no such move was carried out. Soviet sculptor Vera Mukhina is sometimes credited for rescuing the monument, because she considered it to be of high artistic value. In 1963, when the issue of demolition was raised again, it was dismissed by Soviet authorities as the destruction of the monument would have caused deep indignation and tension in society. During the Soviet era, it remained a symbol of national independence to the general public. Indeed, on 14 June 1987, about 5,000 people gathered at the monument to lay flowers. This rally renewed the national independence movement, which culminated three years later in the re-establishment of Latvian sovereignty after the dissolution of the Soviet Union.

Some freedom time was needed to take things out of my mind before they destroys me.. So I took this pretty girl for a totally free ride in the mountains, only with a fancy neck rope around her neck. She's the sweetest and the calmness at her peak. This was a good ride together, thank you for being here when I need you the most.

I wish you happy Sunday.
This is my new work in process. I miss my brushes and smell of oil.
Those horses I do from my imagination, maybe because I like to be wild [horse], and maybe I am on some way. What I know I am independent which is lonely but satisfying condition.
