Description
I visited a display of Taxidermy recently and took a heap of photos. It was really strange seeing animals being so still!

Great shot! I was once interested in that art, way back when....
Great capture...
The stiller the better in this case.
This is very well done. Where was this display? A private or public place? I think the painting on this cat could be better as the hardline black takes away from the natural look but the actual mounting and skill processing is excellent and the ears and nostrils were well formed and dried. That's not easy. And the birds intrigue me. They are so difficult to do, especially the songbirds with their tiny wings and legs - fragile breastbones that do not give well to removing the skin from them. I'll be very interested in seeing more of this wildlife artistry and the details you can provide.
EXCELLENT SHOT!!!!!!
Great POV and well captured! Yeah, I think mine a little more life in it. ;D
Eyes wide, ears back, claws exposed: I've felt like this on occasion--probably more times that I care to admit. The details are amazing, as is the light. It's quite eerie to see a creature so still, or stuck somewhere between alive and not alive--real but not real. Taxidermy is quite intriguing in that respect. And this is a wonderful piece of photographic art.
Great shot, but I find it a bit creepy when animals are stuffed, but probably even worse if this one was that close and not stuffed.
That's an intense look and great capture. Dana
Mmmmm! I think thats a Puma? (Cougar) Impressive and mean looking but don't like to see them stuffed.. Was there a stuffed human.. No.. I think not... Case closed! Rob
Outstanding capture.
