What a spectacular first impression this makes! Definitely suggestive of pagan ritual. The colors are wonderful and the placement of the sun between the antlers is perfect. Great job!

Good artists notes .....I enjoyed reading your interesting and informative notes. The colors in your sunset are so beautiful and the deer skull adds a wonderful silhouette effect and brings good contrast to your scene. Visually strong and the haze from the wildfires gives a dreamy effect to your photography. Very well photographed in good lighting, sharp focus, and outstanding details and clarity in your image. Outstanding work and thanks for sharing.

I think this was a great idea, and the whole image has a flare of mysticism. Of course because of the skull with antlers, but also because of the perfect placement of the sun in the center. I especially like that the skull is so well lit in spite of the back light.

The photo is nice and sharp with clear details, and the skull is standing out so well against the fantastic looking sky. The exposure is perfect.

I also like the way you have cropped the photo and the centered position of the skull and sun. Indeed a great looking and well taken photo, and with an excellent DOF.

This is absolutely wonderful!
I like how cool the contrast looks between the sun, which is well timed by the way, and the skull

Very nice work! Cant wait to see more

This has a super dramatic appearance and is very creative! I like how the sun looks between the antlers, The light coming through the hollow sockets of the skull is eerie and interesting.

Wow! I really like Pagan sun! You clearly spent time setting it up and the outcome is really good...although it is a little creepy ..but I think it's meant to be ! It looks like it could be a super book cover, great technical expertise me thinks!

Comment from nikman


Yes, indeed there is a lot of pagan feel in this fascinating photo! Your dramatic, fine and central composition offers us a frightening look at that skull, which is not dispelled by the nice sunset.
Sharpness and exposure are OK. Well done!

WOW a really stunning shot - I love the sun perfectly sitting over his head creating some kind of Egypt old time effect - excellent composition, clear and sharp in details , perfect focus, contrast and lighting
I love specially the contrast of soft living colors and the skull representing the past - a very interesting picture, well framed , well done
