This is an amazing photograph!… The wingspan elegance and flair and frill of the wing tips in contrast to the cenotaphic, austere block architecture for an art-historical mind evokes a kind of commentary on Paul Strand’s “Wallstreet 1915,” and to the a-art-historical mind, or an-historical mind–its simple but profound evocations are the shared grace of human form constructed and nature’s form come willy-nilly in the skies above; static dynamic and dynamic static… I could go on in my late-night musings….(crop out the gable roof in lower left?… NO… looking again, it mirros the wings!) ALSO-this does not look like a seagull…wingspan too long and straight?

“Cenotaphic,” Jeez it’s just a boid on the Bowery. But I’ll have to get you to blurb my first coffee table book.
Just beautiful!
Amazing spread!
