This right here, is a Pteranodon, a large pterosaur, and in fact everybody's favorite pterosaur at that, being known for hundreds of years as a giant of the air, although it was rivaled and exceeded by some genera who were discovered much later. The whole idea of the neon skies title came when I went to the Jaffna Fort, in the north of Sri Lanka (I am a Sri Lankan, yes!) and I saw the loveliest sunset I'd ever seen.
I was with friends, and I got a bit too poetic while talking to one of them. I told her-"the sun drops its form in the west, leaving neon pink across the somber lavender skies...." or something like it.
Well, here's the origin story of this picture, and as for why it's so special, it came off my head at the most random moment.
