Inside Story


Star Bunny Studio 2012

Truth be known, I have a thing for bones. 
I am forever fascinated by hidden structures that create an armature for what we see on the outside.
When I saw the "Inside Story" exhibit in the small mammal house at the National Zoo I was instantly captivated.

The exhibit not only shows actual skulls of some fascinating creatures, they also displayed x-rays of the animals.

It might be a strange connection but the idea of taking a closer look at the underlaying structure of a living creature seems to be a poignant reminder at this point and time. There is always more than what meets the eye.

I hope this inspires you to look closer at what lays beneath the surface this weekend.
