Foramen the Tetons

Probably not the most aesthetically pleasing photo, but it conveys a certain mood. This was taken on the last day of the trip, and the overcast sky reflected a melancholy mood as I was getting ready to go home. Most of the workshops had closed down, and although the crowds drive me nuts, there’s a certain vibrancy to all the activity. As I walked the bank alone, I came across this bone. Thought I had to do something with it.

For some reason I feel like a turkey leg right now.

I love the framing idea you have chosen Ron. This is definitely something that gets you thinking.

Well, you certainly don't see that every day. I'm wondering about a much tighter crop, maybe a vertical to emphasize the bone.

Creative composition for sure. I just think the light is too flat here for this to have enough punch.

A bit too 'gimicky' for me personally, but i give you much credit for finding an original take on the 'Tetons through a window' shot.
