Fallen Bird On The Turnpikeby ~shutterbabe2006

Photography / Conceptual

The way this bird lay was like he was still falling... and in this photo he seems to be looking at me, knowing that I captured his fall.

Very stirring shot.
Indeed.
It's almost.
As if.
It posed.
Just for you.

Wonderful work.

You have absolutely managed to capture such a profound emotional moment in this photo. Just studying the pose of the bird's body (angled in a falling feeling, as you suggested), it's sad to wonder whether this bird was killed by something....or if it almost wanted to end its own life (just looking at the glassy eyes - they almost hold a world-weary grief to them...). The fact that its feathers convey such an ironically cheerful blue send shivers up my spine (I'm reminded of the "Bluebird of Happiness from childhood stories/rhymes...

). Although I would have very much wanted to see a larger high-res version of this, it's definitely a thought-provoking photo deserving of compliments. Excellent job.

BLUE as the colour of an untimely death??? Nice picture and I like the theme as well.
