I wonder if anyone would notice birds/ladybugs poo , and headless flowers in the picture, they also have hidden meanings.

Little poo conveys unpleasantness which is hiding inside all pleasant/pleasurable things, and headless/petalless flowers convey impermanence, basic trait of all conditioned existence.

This picture might looks like normal illustration, but observing at smaller scale it contains hidden symbols telling about the ultimate truth of the universe, this makes human-made artwork looks more valuable and meaningful to me.
