About the image

A man looks up at the inflatable pig between the chimneys of Battersea Power Station in London during the cover shoot for the Pink Floyd album, 

“I shot a whole roll of film of London’s famed Battersea Power Station when the Pink Floyd flew a blow-up pig above it for their Animals cover in 1976. To everyone’s horror, the inflated pig slipped free from its moorings while aloft. The band had originally hired an ex-police marksman to shoot it down if this happened, but he never showed up." -- Carinthia West
