I'll come right out and say that this is a morbid - and at least for me a bit disturbing - image. But the scene struck me as powerful and I wanted to try and say something with it. I took the image with the original intent of presenting it in this very dark manner that's a bit disconnected from reality...b&w, dark, and with a slight Orton effect to render it a bit ghostlike. The subject itself is a deceased Night Heron chick that had either fallen out or was kicked out of its nest.
Of course, your thoughts are appreciated.

I like your take on this. Not an easy site to view or photograph. I can't help but think about the poor chick and it's circumstances. Your overall presentation is well thought out and also in my opinion really captures the finality of death.
