There was a sad accident in Korea in 2014. Ship sank in the ocean and more thatn 300 young highschool students died. They were going on a group trip. When I saw these thousands of birds flying as a group, I thought about this song A Thousand of Winds and remembered the verse, saying,... Please do not stand at my grave and cry. I am not there, I did not die. I am the swift rush of birds in flight. I am the stars that shine at night. I am a thousand winds that blow... In front of this incredible moment, I could not breathe and kept pushing the shutter.
