18th Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Natural World
Night Bird

This picture was taken from the famous Charles Bridge in Prague. The dreamy and surreal mood and blurred movements of the birds illuminated by the bridge light inspired me to write a little poem: When the night darkens the colors of the dusk, when your companions of the day have fallen silent, you come, beloved night bird. You are the guardian of silence and darkness. Noiseless you make your rounds when my spirit sets off to other shores into the land of dreams |
