Well of course you would combine the birds nest together with the deer skull in an image where the nest and skull are on the wintery snow, the skull and the empty nest are both empty of the life that once occupied them , it's only fitting that they will be found together on the snow. This is well focused, the image is clear, exposure and whites are well managed, colors and tones are natural. Well arranged, very creatively, well presented!

I think the snow on the skull and especially in the nest looks great. The rich color saturation of the skull brings out some nice detail in the antlers. The patterns are interesting to view.

This is a very natural looking setting and definitely something you might find in the wild. I like how you have incorporated it. The colors are very natural looking.

I like this one a lot. The nest goes very well with the skull and antlers. The snow is perfect and it looks for all the world like a natural scene. Nice detail in the skull and great colors.

That's 'Way Cool',LeeAnn!
It's another one of those interestingly 'eerie and mysterious' kinds of pictures that I really enjoy!
It looks as though everyone in the scene ( or at least the remaining evidence of them! ) as gone WAY south! :)
It's an Outstanding image and a really 'Good Show',my friend!
