paula, ida, ai, ulrika & rynke: thank you for your sweet comments! it really is amazing how alive these birds look in the photos. fun to hear from all of you that you initially thought they were living birds!
atlantic treefox: thanks! i like that aspect as well, that they get to live a little more through the photos
a.: i looked the birds in the last photo up and believe they are bramblings…but not entirely sure - didn’t look at the information board at the museum : )
michelle: hello michelle! thanks for your comments, glad to know you liked the set!
sandra: thank you sandra, i prefer them alive as well. the animals in this post all look a bit sad…or maybe it is just the work of my imagination

the secret lives of stuffed animals! i have been to the zoological museum here in copenhagen today. as the weather is still grey and dull, a trip to the museum seemed like the perfect thing to do. i’ve always been fascinated by animals and the diversity in species that exists. i do prefer looking at living animals but there’s also a charm to the stuffed ones and the way they are displayed in zoological museums. it’s a strange transformation these stuffed animals undergo - in the museum they look stiff and dead but then captured in a photo they get a sense of presence about them.

i’ll show you more photos from the museum tomorrow.

inspired by photos i saw on atlantic treefox’s photostream
