I found the remains of a dead bird in a parking lot & snapped it. Later, I combined that shot with a motion-blur shot of an old silver fork. This is the result. I wished for better light on the dead bird & I wanted to move it to a better locaton without the yellow paint on the asphalt but it was long-dead, dried/stuck. It was a sad little corpse. What an awful place to die, for a bird like that.

Before I read your description I was going to say that it reminded me of a fluttering bird. Now that I know what it is, my first thought was ewwww lol but it is a pretty cool looking abstract.

Strange combination, but I like the effect! Nice homage to this dead bird.

Rather interesting - actually very interesting, though I'm not sure exactly why - maybe something to do with how the 3 or 4 elements (fork, feathers, feet and pavement) are featured, almost a battle between shape and texture, and the barest intimation of story. I like the yellow line.
