That could be extremely difficult for those who live in cities i suppose. But interesting nonetheless. Cant say i come across 'skeletal' 'remains' that often when out and about where i am.

As far as being in the city - even with the special rules flag, this challenge topic surely won't be approved anytime soon, so... I'm just sayin.

If we could use old photos, I could enter it, but there aren't much 'skeletal' 'remains' anywhere where I live.

Would a dead tree count?

I don't even think live trees can count. I've seen dogs and elephants that do though. :P

Exoskeletons would count, too, right? I'm all for it - stretch the creativity! Broaden horizons! Push boundaries!

Edit: Besides, per Dictionary.com, all the subjects would have to be are "of, pertaining to, or like a skeleton." So a tree that was LIKE a skeleton would work, right?

What about zombies? You know, the living dead with their ravaged flesh hanging in tattered ribbons from their lifeless but animated bones?

'coz I've got one of those.

Now I'm really liking this idea. Shall we make it a Triptych?

I'm a huge fan of zombies and support the idea that a zombie can never be DNMC. And as long as you don't use one that's too fleshy, I'd call it 'skeletal'. :D

I bet we'd see at LEAST one entry of this;

I love the idea though. Could get very creative! :)

That'd be fine, but being a Doctor, I'd expect something more like a cadaver from Achoo. :)

Oh, no, he's not very fleshy, and most of it is badly dessicated anyway. I keep him in the back yard for varmint control.
