Black-tailed deer skull on iced over pond7 total reviews
Comment from avmurray
I like everything about this photo, but first and foremost the simplicity and the limited color pallet. I also think the editing is great because it has brought out such fine textures in the icy pond, and lovely blue drop shadows around the scull.
This is also a nice and sharp photo showing such clear and well defined details in the scull and antlers, and the exposure is perfect.
The format and framing is perfect and the scull has got a perfect placement within the frame. This is indeed a lovely, creative and truly well taken photo, and with an excellent DOF.

I love deer and other animal skulls.
I love these antlers.
Your filters has a wonderful affect on the skull.
Almost makes it look like an x-ray.
Its very unique, like my animal skull drawings.
Great photo, thank you for sharing.

Comment from Pamela Ruggiero
Those antlers are impressive. So, the topaz filter allowed you to make the skull the same color of the pond or is that the sky reflecting on ice? Nice composition and framing. Sharp focus. Thank you for sharing and best of luck with this image
