disturbing is not the right word. it doesn't stop at disturbing, which makes it cathartic.

it is the aestheticization of death, like those Victorian photos of corpses. Photography circling back again.

I have a poem with the same title.

I'm hanging you in my fantasy art gallery

I was only looking at your famous photo of train tracks the other day, before this challenge started. I love that photo.

Not sure if you’ve noticed a few stray hairs on your shoulder left behind ;) Think you’ve blended this in well. I’m not sure I like the tilt of your head. I would’ve preferred maybe the whole of your face be in the photo. Still a pretty good job, bumping this up.

Powerful. It has a deja vu feel but such is the human anatomy as well!

I love the expression, priceless :) Great lighting too. Oh, and I am with you on that one Mark: I had to request my wife's help as well on that one. Life is full of little surprises.
