Thank you guys. I have to admit that I recently got inspired by one photographer, not Pentaxian, from Facebook. Every his pictures is perfect to me. I took this series thinking of his work, his talent to "see" things. To predict the light ahead waiting for wings getting open. Of course, I will never get anything like his work, but who cares. Inspiration is such a good feeling.

In case someone is curious, here is his work:
