Marked it as helpful out of courtesy. The picture depicts a butterfly eaten by a spider! :)

Need to explain a bit. The mere anatomy of the bird on the cold rock is beautiful. The dark area looks like the last drops of its soul are crossing the last passage. I wonder if more details in the dark area of the tail would have brought more to the image. I also would have tried a softer focus. But all these do not matter and won't alter the vote. Good luck 8

Well exposed, cropped, nice balance and tones. Looks like a book illustration. Does it take me to the world of the last Mughal? Not sure about that, but might be my ignorance. Got to bump it 7
