Dem dry bones.





















For a while there, I was an art director waiting to happen. Well, I never happened.
But how I wish I was gifted with photoshop magic now when the world is faced with the remains of Richard III found beneath a PARKING LOT which I find fitting since Shakespeare has had him begging for horsepower for centuries. Too little, too late!

I just want to see the remains of Richard dance. DANCE! Get to work photo shoppers and stop motion artists of the world!

I love how the loose jaw and cranial fragments pictured left of the skull form a happy face.

I love how the curved spine of the king - a condition that must have hindered his movements in life - seems to have him twirling like a super dancer in death .
