Tony, thank you very much for the mention, much appreciated.

I took the photo at Angel Place, a short back street at Sydney CBD. It features this art installation called Forgotten Songs with empty bird cages hanging in the sky accompanied by the sounds of Sydney's lost birds.
 
Thank you so much for the explanation which is a beautiful tribute to the birds. I knew they were bird cages but didn't know much else, now it makes wonderful sense ans such a nice tribute.
 
thank you very much to Roland, Rob, Angelo for including my pictures in your favourites this week. I really appreciate it.

As usual I have great difficulty selecting favourites when the standard in the Gallery is so consistently high.

Tony and Lynnb, thanks for mention two of my photos.
As pure amateur this is the only appreciation I get, besides myself being satisfied with on or the other shot.
Always a reward when I see someone also takes a moment for a closer look at a picture I have taken, or even a comment.
Thanks again and Happy Holidays.
