Skeksis



Today, I was photographing my 'bone box' collection - a selection of bones and remains that I've found over the years. Nature has mummified this bird corpse to the point where it now looks like a Skeksis, as seen in Jim Henson's wonderful 'The Dark Crystal'. It may seem macabre, but I find this and my other finds both fascinating and visually inspiring

  3. Tom: when I die, I bequeath my bone box to you. And since I'll be dead, you can add my bones to it too

    Alex: Oh yes, my bone box is always close
