30th - "Fat Old Sun"

near Norton Lindsey, Warks. view map

(from the 1970 album Atom Heart Mother)

The last of a November day slips slowly behind the distant horizon, as the sun sets on another Pbase Challenge...when I photographed this sunset a few weeks ago, I knew exactly for which song and for which day I'd use it.

This has been a brilliant Challenge, I've enjoyed seeing all your wonderful images and interpretations of Pink Floyd's songs - funny, colourful, creative and thought-provoking, it's been a wonderful month. And thank you all of course, for stopping by with your visits and comments

And may I take this opportunity to wish my fellow Scots (and indeed all my Pbase friends) a happy St. Andrew's Day!
