Very effective and thought provoking shot.

Agreed with the sentiment of your title but this image is probably a little gross for most viewers and some will think it gratuitous. The image is on the small side, the bird feathers lacks detail and is a little overexposed. The bird is too small in the image and focus is not particularly good.

Meets challenge exceedingly well...unfortunately. Wish the photo was a little sharper and clearer. Still, the statement is worth making.

My sentiments exactly.

death is indeed dark...

sorry, i don't see how this fits the "darkness" challenge.

This is terrible. I don't know it kind of disturbs me.

Sorry but I am having trouble deciding what this is- I'll try for a look on a different monitor
Ok I get it now - but image is still a bit off to me - sorry

I feel sorry for the bird, and agree with the respect nature idea. I get the whole death and darkness thing, but I think this is a bit of a stretch.

Good concept, but so disturbing to me that I had to scroll the picture off the screen to comment. I guess I agree, and I also agree that art can/should sometimes be disturbing, but I can't look at it so I'm giving it an average vote.

IMHO this image -- although very nice -- did not meet the challenge
