post "Something Dead"

Ken,
this must be really sweet as a large print. Beautiful.

I suspect that some images do well at big sizes, because even when enlarged, there are still small forms of visual interest.

I tried the above photo at 12x15, and while the details hold, it looks better if you stand back a bit - perhaps because the basic forms are rather large.

Picture two, NOT large format, but the family business.

So, *ahem*, what exactly would you like me to post....

Initially, I thought I'd post this in the portrait thread, but here folks will at least expect to see something dead.

This is my first attempt at LF still life. It's a skull that one of our surveyors found in the field. I put it on a dark cloth with a softbox on each side. There's a little back tilt to keep the teeth and face in focus but soften the inside of the sockets. It's a learning experience for me.
