Skull Inside-out Skull Inside-out Todays creation came about from thinking of hunting animals, Bambi, gun owners rights, and our own mortality within our providence.  I shot a cute little chipmunk last week with a camera, and was trying to create something worthy today but threw it back to the rotting idea pile.  To many cute pictures of animals can be suffocating.

Here in the southwest we have places that sell animal skulls for decorating a ranch style home.  I admit to having one such skull, but it is not a bull but some other large animal, and the fake horns were attached for grandeur in size and sales.  This abomination is why we liked it, oddly enough.  So after retrieving this creature off the wall and removing some dust, dog collars, and a yarmulke, Kippah, I realized that the unseen back side of his/her (PC?) skull would add additional interest if photographed sort of inside-out.

Thus, this new reincarnation, now an icon of power and henceforth named “Punisher” protector of all Bambi-esque lifeforms, will only return to the wall with a change in mounting brackets. That is…if I get permission.  At least I have this new image!
