Oh wow! What a find. Both gross and fascinating. It looks like what is left of the animal's nostril is twisted around on it's skull. This suggests to me that is was devoured by a predator. Glad you took a risk with this one and didn't play it safe with something more acceptable. My highest vote so far in this challenge.

I'm going through the entries, stopping at those images I feel have had the benefit of an unconventional eye and dwelling a little longer to try to see and appreciate what you saw. This is one of those images.

Positives: What an arresting image - certainly not something you see everyday. The preciseness of your presentation of the skull, upon a table of rock, is very much in keeping with the positioned skulls of still-life tradition; but here with the natural backdrop and the uncompromising anatomy of the skull make our consideration of life and death all the more pronounced.

Critical stuff: Nothing at all

Overall: I wouldn't have it on my wall but I certainly can appreciate what you've made here.

Gross. And cool. I just wish that thing stood out more from the background. It loses quite a bit of oomph with the way it blends in with the rocks. (It's basically the same color as the top center rock.)

Weird and creepy. I am repulsed and amused at the same time.

This is so terrifying. So very seriously warped yet mesmerizing.
