Decaying Mountains: Close-Up Views of The Lamb's Teeth

"My mouth is full of decayed teeth and my soul of decayed ambitions." --James Joyce
 

These two images are the last of my close-up studies of the lamb's head, this time focusing on the teeth.  In my last post I mused on the similarity between close-up work and landscape photography.  To me, these images seem to suggest mountain ranges.  Part of what's so fascinating about photographing teeth is getting to capture the wear and decay and scum that come along for the ride with the daily ritual of eating.  I have plans to revisit this same idea from a more human perspective in the near future, so stay tuned for that.  In the meantime: enjoy the weirdo teeth mountain range imagery!
