Sunset at the Marble Quarry

Borba, Porugal

Notes:

Sunset at the bottom of a giant abandoned marble quarry in the middle of the forest. Pigeons circle in the lower levels, offering the sound of wings, while starlings and swallows gather near the mouth of the pit, 50 meters above.

The natural acoustics of the steep walls allow each bird cry to resonate in a living echo chamber, as if there were thousands not hundreds of birds gathering.
