As I told Juan in an earlier message, the gun is on a rod attached to a
long, heavy pole.  If you look carefully you can see it.  The photo isn't
in any way meant to be a realistic or literal interpretation, and  I wanted
to at least suggest that the gun was floating or not attached to anything,
so the support is intentionally difficult to see.

As for the burnt out patches of sky, why, Boris, you have just hit upon a
symbol of the metaphor that is this photograph's raison d'etre ;-))
