per Wikipedia, "'O Fortuna' is a medieval Latin Goliardic poem written early in the 13th century, part of the collection known as the Carmina Burana. It is a complaint about Fortuna, the inexorable fate that rules both gods and men in Roman and Greek mythology."

this is one of those stupid shots that was meant to take 10 minutes, but took over an hour and three rounds of shooting... and i'm still not sure i've got the image as i meant it to be... but i'm done with playing for tonight :)
Cool image!
