[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
This little girl looked at the mummy in the St Paul Science Museum display and said, "Daddy, the mummy's toes are dirty!" cutting through all the explanation of who the mummy was (nobody knows, he was purchased from a souvenir dealer in 1915 - some souvenir!), how he got the the museum (the souvenir buyers got tired of having him in their house and gave him away), and what the museum had learned about him (lots about his anatomy through various imaging systems). Her daddy said, "He can't help it, he's dead!"

Taken at ISO 3200 in ambient light. After I posted this, I read some comments by kitflorendo on other people's photos and was inspired to improve on this with a better crop and my first border. I like it a lot better, but don't know how to put the better one on display, so please take a look at the Workshop Photo.

Thank you kitflorendo!
