The following image is the original series from Duane Michals. Compare?
I think what caught my eye was the interesting process he photographed to describe an ordinary event. Death comes to every creature eventually, and particularly to old creatures, but it isn't a subject normally photographed. Sure, dead things are photographed, and people on their death beds, but Michals photographed the actual process of death which is a very difficult and interesting thing to do.
