Silhouetted paleontologist shines a flashlight

About this image

This atmospheric cinematic image shows a silhouetted field paleontologist investigating a fully unearthed large carnivorous dinosaur skeleton embedded in rocky cave bedrock, illuminated by bright work spotlights at an active excavation site. Warm fossil bone tones contrast against deep shadowy cave interiors, with dig and survey equipment scattered around the site, capturing the dramatic thrill of a landmark prehistoric fossil discovery.

  Don't worry, your two votes got me into fourth place; I really appreciate it. And you're right: I also like this one better than the ones on the podium—that's just how it is.Thank you Sealine and for the tip too!

  Many thanks, EternaSky; I thought everyone would submit open-air excavations, so I wanted to put a new spin on it with the cave.Thanks for all!
