Spotted this dead bird in the water while touring the botanical garden. Photo is turned upside down (otherwise the face should be upside down reflecting from the water) and it makes the bird look like flying upward and I was taking it from below. I guess this is the only way I can bring him back to life! Poor soul...

I understand now how you could relate to my pic of a dead sparrow ! Yours is so weird, I first thought he was flying dead ! before you caption let me guess it's water - fascinating !

This is an intriguing image - it looks surreal like there are drops of snow or embers of fire going down a well. Nice one.

@Jason Kravitz: Thanks for the comment, it does look like a well, doesn't it? That inspired me of another title for the original shot on another site. Nice community you've created here, BTW, glad I found it!
