Angel Bear

One of a series of bear sculptures by local artists

The wings of the bear are covered with names

Great sculture. I really like the second photo. The contrast between the soft reflection and the sharp wing is great. I can even read the names on the wing at this size.

Do you know what the names represent?

Canon 50D.

Interesting, also emotional. I think it represents Polar bears and their lives, as this is a Polar bear.
Unfortunately the number of artic Polar bears are diminishing due to hunting and Global Warming and it's effect on their environment. Thanx for sharing...

These are beautiful pictures Don... I like a lot the way you compose the second one... Smile

A work of art which did not begin in emotion is not art.
