The Great Gig in the Sky...!

Anywhere?

The Great Gig in the Sky
(Wright) 4:44

"And I am not frightened of dying, any time will do, I
don't mind. Why should I be frightened of dying?
There's no reason for it, you've gotta go sometime."

"If you can hear this whispering you are dying."

"I never said I was frightened of dying."

Thanks Kelly and Julie. The rainbow and landscape is the base photograph onto which I pasted a B52 which I captured during the Avalon Airshow.

I simply copied, scaled down the B52 three more times and pasted together with the exhaust trails.

This B52 flew non-stop from Guam down to Melbourne/Avalon, circled the airfield a couple of times then flew back to Guam. An awesome flying machine, imagine the terror of seeing a squadron of these heading your way. They would not be on a sight-seeing mission ;-(

Thanks for commenting ~ Regards Bob.

Wow! Very good. The fighters being out of proportion to the landscape, having passed through the rainbow, adds to the drama. Julie

How did you add the rainbow Bob? Great effect and contrast in context with the bombers. Well done! - Kelly
