I've got new shadows on the wall above the fireplace. Reminders of a successful Colorado hunt. And as sometimes happens with each retelling of a story, they get bigger. ![[Linked Image]](http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f217/phaseolus/017_zpsae0067d7.jpg)

VERY cool!   I have dozens of all kinds of mounts but I believe my favorite is a big bull elk, European. They really look good over an adobe fireplace in a southwestern style home..... ( which I don't have BTW...)

That's a great mount and great display! Well done!

Thanks Guy's. The lighting was accidental, we have never used the single spotlight above the fireplace. At least until now. As it lay ![[Linked Image]](http://i48.photobucket.com/albums/f217/phaseolus/003_zps4cf2ffba.jpg)

The shadow must measure 420 ;-) Nice euro and it looks great on the wall.

Well done.
Reminds me of a Georgia O'Keefe painting.

Very nice Fred, looks great. I also enjoy the photo "as he lays." Happy to see a great plan came to be, and the European mount is "priceless" for your hunting memories. : )
