Killing Me Softly

metatate:

The very reason you ask "Why?" is the exact reason why humans are distinct among all creation. We ask, we explore, we have purpose, we have self-awareness of temporal and eternal hopes. Animals and plants do not. You argument provides its own answer.

soup:

See previous answer ..... Human v. Human conflict is completely different than human v. non-human. I will not make personal attacks against you, like you did against me. Especially over something so trivial. However, I provide exact reason why I have a stance on this issue. Yet both you and metatate use unrelated supporting arguments bringing in human v. human interaction. That is where your idea fails.

both:

I am against animal cruelty. But cruelty connotes intentional harm, such as torture. But many things, both life and lifeless come into contact with unfortunate situations. It is only humans who understand these implications and pelicans and trees do not. That is why I believe in reasonable prudence, but never would I put an animal/tree ahead of a human's life, whether it is on the brink of mortal destruction or on the brink of not enjoying the potential of our existence.

i think the paws missing from the shot make the animal seem taller and more menacing. Doesn't bother me. And I like the image too. Came back a second/third time until comment.

This is probably your best of the "reflection/reality?" shots. Because instead of simply tricking the viewer, both sides help illuminate the story of where you were....

That is harsh, because this image is a testament to photography I think...
