Mistaken

It took a long time to finish this picture. Not that I am slow at photoshop but this picture meant a lot to me. That cold cold look... that body language... the frozen moment. Something extremely sad about this picture. I mean... look at how we relate crows and ravens to the dark side and the evil. They are feared, hated, and very unfairly treated. In practical, they are very organized and successful creatures. They're efficient, they're effective and they're only trying to survive just as we are. How we misjudge them only reflects the 'wrong' in us. And sadly enough... the hatred doesn't come from our own personal experience [in case of almost all of us] but from the hatred the society feeds us.

I have never hated them personally, and it's not that they're my favorite of the bunch... but somehow they always seemed very capable of plucking out my eyes.
