Awe, bless him. beautifully preserved.
Poor little guy. Nice composition.
Now that was a terrible death. Great shot though :)
Poor little guy.Great capture!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I pity him and his death, that being said, I know a few humans, or those who claim to be human, this very event...
wonderful shot
Poor little fellow. Another example of Nature's prime directive: Watch Your Step.
the placement on that pure white surface (with pinkish shadows!) makes a museum-like presentation, and it's very effective. Heavy duty story too (the heat this summer should alert the U.S.'s climate denying government just how real it is). A very effective shot; you do very intuitive things with backgrounds.
(And "desiccated newt" reminds me of "chrunchy frog" ((the pythons)), or the ingredients of the witches brew in Macbeth, "Scale of dragon, tooth of wolf, Witches' mummy, maw and gulf...")
