Very sad, beautiful work.
Of great stature, this bird passed away to a more colourful world reflecting off his wings !! Superb composition ...
sigh... so goes life... i see his color fading... as always quite beautiful & full of feeling! :]
fantastic and deep work.. excellent done.. what an great composition and mood
Beautiful even in death as he changes back into the elements that made him and let him be free for so short of a time!
WOW! Brilliant and amazing artwork! I love the composition and POV.. Excellent work!
Excellent artwork!!

s fantastic how the bd figures out of the dark and flys over them.great symbolic message. simply wonderful,Gun. Thank you for beeing you !!!!!!!! #:O) !!!!!!!!!!Brilliant watercolor treatment!!! Almost like pale stain glass!!
Sad But Beautifully captured the peacefulness of death ....for even the bird. Exquistely done ..Love your range of colors ...
Love these types of images and you are a master at it, I wish I could do something like this. Alas all I can do is admire those who can. Excellent work.
Textures Really Fit This Image.....Well Done!
Wooow I love it excellent colors and artistry done my friend VOTE
Beautifully image!!!!.you win gun...love this work..VOTE
Awwww! Is he caught in a sea of oil?? What a sad image indeed!! But so very well done as usual! I love the texture here, quite intriguing!
Perfect job, its a moving piece, it feels balanced.
This image is Beautiful...no doubt,but, what's beyond it separates artistic skill from expressive depth (just my opinion)...A person who creates, puts little bits of his/her spirit in what they create...This work is a strong proof and a thousand reasons why you MUST keep doing what you're doing...Outstanding!
I can only agree with all the above, for everything has been said already...
Gorgeous colours. The birdhead appears a little small in proportion. The oilslick reference is both sad and beautiful at once. Enchanting post.
This is quite captivating. Your use of subtle color and texture just keeps getting better all the time.
wonderful art work..love this one....
Remarkable image - could live with this one easily.
This is so sad, and so expressive in its beauty - should be printed as a poster - I can see this image as a quite small size in huge grey-white paper; maybe added small text... Very impressive! The textures are so great here honoring the little bird's life and death. Your heart is gold, Gun:-D
