The suggester loves My Wings II by =3wyl for a number of reasons... 1) This scares me. Seriously. Heights = falling = notfun. 2) That leads me to the fact that the concept is great. Falling is flying - so you aren't really falling, and you aren't going to die. No, we never die until that moment when we hit the ground. 3) The actual technical skill is really good too. The composition and the different focuses really make this something a little different, which is nice.

Where flying feels like falling
And to fall, it seems,
To fly.

What an emotive piece. It combines a sense of dread with freedom and embodies a universal fact. What most people fear is not imprisonment - it's freedom. And this work captures all of that in just a few spare images :)
