The Myth of Daedalus and Icarus in Photos
Photo 1: Daedalus and his son Icarus escape imprisonment by using homemade wings.
Photo 2: Daedalus told Icarus to fly a middle course. He warned him that flying too low would soak the wings in sea mist, while flying too high would melt the wax with the sun's heat.
Photo 3: Icarus grew too excited and arrogant. He flew too close to the sun, the wax melted, and he fell into the sea and drowned.

Wonderful shots, and a nice tale Dean.
I am especially drawn to the first, it looks so serene. I must say though that my mind wants to see something lower down and central in the sky. With those two 'eyes' looking right at me I keep looking for the nose :-)
One of those where once you see it..........
