Hi Paula and welcome back. I hope everything is fine with you!
A very lovely photo with a great sense of freedom. I like several of the word so I’m not sure which one I will choose.

I’d love to but I’ll see how I go. I actually thought of your challenge today when I was out walking my dog and a rabbit scampered across his path. It could have been a classic ‘pursuit’ if I’d been quick enough with my phone!

Hello Paula. So good to have you back in my inbox. I hope you feel revitalized. I’ve missed your superb photos – this one reminds me how much, with its sky and punch of red and sense of height and freedom.
The word I’d choose would be “veneration”. It’s the anniversary of the beginning of the Warsaw Uprising on Monday: that amazing effort against the odds by ordinary people.
