Okay, do I even have to say it? Just for the sake of getting it out of my system, I'll say it. THIS PIECE IS JUST SO BEAUTIFUL! The bird made of water makes me just want to go with the flow and fly away free! The flower, with the droplets on it, shows that the bird and the flower share a common connection. Bird to Flower, Animals to Plants, all are one and the same. This deviation truly shows the union of nature and all its glorious bounty. Keep up the good art and don't let anyone tell you it's not, cause it is.

Yet another beautiful highspeed shot. The way the water is shaped, it looks, at first glance, to be a bird, flying away from the flower's surface. Then it is an insect coming to land on the flower in search of pollen.

I really love and admire the way you capture a moment, nay rather an instant in time with these photos. I'd love to know how you go about setting them up in order to capture these perfect shots.

The almost black and white feel of the image is not too stark, it's moderated by the hand holding the flower.

Another great image for your collection!

It...is just about the most amazing this I've ever seen!!!
I absolutely love how the er looks like a bird and an insect at the same time! The delicacy of the water reflects the fragile and lightweightedness of both creatures. Awesome job!
