I likely shouldn't have used my wife as an example.....but your scenario likely fits why I'd be able to show my harvest picture in my office over this one.
Because of the blood? To me that indicates that the animal probaly died quickly. Much better than starving or getting hit by a car.
I wonder what people think when they see a deer splattered all over the road? Much worse than a well place shot imo.
Again I understand you being hesitant in showing this pic, but I think we need to be more open as to what we do.
It just looks to me like we are trying to hide something or that we are doing something wrong and that the only wayto get others to accept what we do is to clean it up and make it pretty.Why do we have to do that?
