"... I must down to the seas again,
to the vagrant gypsy life,
to the gull's way and the whale's way

when the long trick's over ..."

I've been heavily influenced by the likes of monkeyinfez
and many of the posts one can find at Woolgathersome.
So, if you like mine, you're going to like theirs ... if you haven't done so already, have a peek at both of those blogs.
This is wonderful. I love the dark area at the top and the light at the bottom and the dark pole with the light coloured head of the bird.. That little piece of light on the top of the pole gives the whole thing that lovely cylndrical shape. A beautiful work Mick!
Lisa Sarsfield:
Thank you so much, Lisa. :)
You're in your grey period!
