Re: Flight of Jatayu (cranberry)



Inspired by a story from the Hindu epic Ramayana:
"The demi-god Jatayu and his brother Sampaati, who had the forms of vultures, used to compete as to who could fly higher. On one such instance Jatayu flew so high that he was about to get seared by sun's flames. Sampaati saved his brother by spreading his own wings and thus shielding Jatayu from the hot flames.

In the process, Sampaati himself got injured and lost his wings. Luckier than Icarus, he did not die a painful death, but had to live wingless for the rest of his life."

Cranberry was my personal preference for this shirt, but I also submitted on brown since it was receiving good feedback (and was the design's original color).

That's really impressive. I'd totally buy one of these.

I must agree; I find this to be the most pleasing design in the derby.
