 This still life, consist of the shell from a giant african snail, which is about 15cm in length, and the skull of a baby antelope (duiker) which is only about 5cm in length. The protea is the same length as the giant snail. I love the fact, that the scales are so extreme. Thanks for all the comments.

This meets the challenge – it’s inanimate and arranged. Not particularly well put together, and over-cropped, IMO. 5

This is really interesting, but I have a hard time figuring out the scale. I like it.
