Interesting.... no carcass?

nice composition. I would burn the shadows in a bit more to give the weeds a bit more depth. Try adjusting the toning curves a bit.

I haven´t printed this negative in quite a while. Thanks for your comments.
I´m curious how it will look now

I think using wider angle would make it even better (more dramatic), but like that one!

Yes, this type of image can be made more intense with a wider angle. You can get closer and exaggerate the ratio between subject and background even more.

I think a lower vantage point with a closer focus would make it more imposing. The background doesn't really add anything to the shot in my eyes.
