Very clever! The bent form made by the snow leading from the skull adds to the theme almost in a recoil from life.

I enjoy the parallelism you created here between two natural phenomenes. It's interesting to compare them in terms of the emotions we associate with each.

Should have at least been in the top ten. I'll never understand the voters here.

I find this a clever photo with 2 elements to describe the "eventuality" of things. Guess some voters didn't get the point of it. Still, a smart photo.

When a picture does not really please me, I try to, at least, have fun with the title.

Very nice image with a convincing feel. Great b/w subject. Bumping up.

HOLY SH!T! Is that a real skull? B/W tones really make this a walk on the dark side evoking some serious emotions for the viewer. I'm left wanting to know more about this shot.

I hope my skeleton ends up undiscovered under someone's stairs.

i like it, great job of handeling the competition, i think it is my monitor, but it seems like the overall image is just a bit dark, a 9
