* The Rainbow Bridge * (For three_grrr) by NekhbetSun
Open full image in new tabDescription
There are meadows and hills for all our special friends so they can run and play together. There is plenty of food, water, and sunshine and our friends are warm and comfortable.
All the animals who have been ill and old are restored to health and vigor; those who were hurt or maimed are made whole and strong again, just as we remember them in our dreams of days and times gone by. The animals are happy and content, except for one small thing; they each miss someone very special to them, who had to be left behind.
They all run and play together, but the day comes when one suddenly stops and looks into the distance. His bright eyes are intent; his eager body begins to quiver. Suddenly, he begins to run from the group, flying over the green grass, his legs carrying him faster and faster.
You have been spotted, and when you and your special friend finally meet, you cling together in joyous reunion, never to be parted again. The happy kisses rain upon your face; your hands again caress the beloved head, and you look once more into the trusting eyes of your pet, so long gone from your life but never absent from your heart.
Then you cross Rainbow Bridge together..." Credits: guilty backgrounds www.ladyvictoire.deviantart.com

Beautiful Mina! Lovely colour and composition!

The text is beautiful, and so is the artwork. You've given this deep glowing nocturnal moment not only a beautiful harmony—in the way the sky and water seem to speak the same language—but you've created this wondrous line of sparks & lights that lead up to the haloed sun as if the spirit of the animal were taken up in that light. A touching mystical vision and tribute to a friend's loss (and to the continuance of life after this one). Beautiful.

A sublime image Mina! The word miracle comes to my mind when I gaze at this composition, which I must admit, is difficult to take my eyes off of! Your artwork is always so fascinating to behold... everything about it; every last detail is evidently and very obviously executed and constructed with precision and tremendous care! A truly lovely scene, mood and atmosphere!
