Description
I have had this photo for years. It is a very small photograph, taken with one of the first Nikon digital cameras made for public purchase in the early 2000s. I painted the photo digitally. I suggest it be purchased as a card only or a small print and have limited the size to two sized prints because it is so small.
However, the composition has always made me smile. I call it "Mirroring" a term used to describe the behavior of mimicing
Eons apart in age, the man's posture and the mammoth's head and tusks look very much alike, dont they!
This is a for fun photo! kk

Thank you, Susan. I remember walking into that room, realizing the man was sleeping, and wanting so much to capture that moment... as he slept along, matching his "body language" with that of an eons old mammoth (or whatever) fossil. So I am happy that you posted your comment. Thank you. The subject was so there for me... an amazing scene to me! KK
