    Cool! Reminds me of a dinosaur dig where they've uncovered the bones of a big brontosaurus or something. Nicely captured! Perfect composition.

    I quite like this, but think the focus falls off a bit too fast. Selfish as I am I'd like to have more of the ribs in focus. Excellent b&w conversion, too.
