I tried lighting this from behind more, but the edges of the preserved gator head showed. I'd appreciate any other lighting tips I can get! The head was massaged with vaseline to get an "alive" sheen. The head came from a shop in the keys. The foot belongs to my son. If you are considering blood: red food coloring in corn syrup looks more realistic than ketchup.

i bet you got this head in a voodoo shop in new orleans. this could be a good shot but i dont think that the illumination is particularly interesting or flattering. looks like straight on camera flash, which is rarely appealing. try some different lighting. mag 99

I like the black background. Maybe needs a little more space at the bottom. It seems cropped a little too close.
