-----

The Eagle by Lord Alfred Tennyson

He clasps the crag with crooked hands;
Close to the sun in lonely lands,
Ring'd with the azure world, he stands.

The wrinkled sea beneath him crawls;
He watches from his mountain walls,
And like a thunderbolt he falls.

This week's Digital Whisper theme was "Blizzard".

I've seen other artists posting for this challenge, but I have been a "lurker". I wanted to do last week's Bonfire theme, but I was too late. Then I made this piece before I knew that the weather forecast now has a potential Blizzard coming this weekend, for the area where I live. :-(

Update: I am unable to enter the challenge, even though I am logged into my Google account when I try to leave a comment there.
