China sang to meby `foureyes

Photography / Architecture / Exterior

High on the sacred mountain.....
There was magic in the air

The clouds surrounded the summit
The wind blew strong and cold

Somewhere in my instincts
The primitive took hold.

I stood there like a mystic
Lost in the atmosphere
I looked upon a presence
Spanning forty centuries.

I thought of time and distance
The hardships of history
I heard the hope and the hunger
When China sang to me...

-Scott- [link] left a song he knows on my last pic of the great wall,….I love the words !!!!

I know now that life is not measured by the number of breaths we take,
....but by the moments that take our breath away !
being at this majestic site......this moment was one of them !

I'm posting this color pic at the request of many that wanted to see the wall in full color.

I'm very grateful for your comments and feedback,....have a nice weekend everybody

Beautiful oppitunity photo. Was this further back along the wall? Its a good perspective as well, and the vastness of the sky and mountain with the wall path makes it look small
