A very strange jaw bone.... by robz

A very strange jaw bone....

This was found in our paddock - took a while to work out what animal it came from.
very weird

@30pics4jackiesdiamond You did better than this Aussie! I had to look it up in a book! The weird front tooth was pretty confusing. It was a wallaby - it was too small for a roo - but exactly the same shape and tooth structure. Cheers Rob

I think this would qualify as a low-key shot since the light source is so singular and it really only brings out details on the skeleton more than the background. Good shot.

Actually if you cropped it a little bit tighter, and even brought the exposure down a little more in post processing, I think this could turn into a really good low-key shot!

Hi Ann- thanks once again for all of your feedback. I can see what you are saying with the fireworks shot. At first I thought the cattle shot might be OK but then thought there was too much detail visible. And I can see what you are saying here too. I'll try a bit of an edit on these two - and I have two more to put up now - that's me done then I think!! Have to have a rest and have another go at another date!! I do like the one you gave me the link for- so professional looking too! And has that range of exposures that mine are lacking. Thanks again from a retired science/ maths teacher with no artistic background, but a large degree of stubbornness!! Eventually I hope to know something about all of this!! Many thanks again. :)

Such a superb low key shot. You have the lighting and shadows down pat with this challenge - well done!

@farmreporter Ann has been so helpful - just wonderful with her advice - and suggested in a way which made wonderful sense! Thank you for your positive feedback. :)
