Rabbit Skull, March 28, 2015

Staged photo of a rabbit skull with some flowers and warm evening light. I played with the placement so I could get a low angle that included the sky. The rabbit skull is a fascinating piece of engineering with distinctive latticework along the sides up front. I assume they cut down wind resistance and allow the rabbit to corner better while achieving maximum speed. I like the clouds in the background. They have an interesting linear character that contrasts with the rounder shapes in the foreground.
