Lords of the Forest
I love the composition of a photographed snake and skull. The pine marten captured my attention because of my passion for mustelids, like ferrets, otters, and minks. My choice of the indigo snake stems from my interest in conservation; these beautiful creatures deserve more attention, and I wanted to learn more about them. The maypop, or passion flower, reflects my appreciation for native plants, as it supports the local ecosystem by being a host plant for the gulf fritillary butterfly.
