Default Blood Colors

I have been discussing blood colors with some of my partners and have a weird request.
I am looking for pictures of blood colors; i.e. lung, heart, artery, liver, gut, muscle/bone,etc. [8D]
Does anyone have any idea where I can find these pictures?:

Different shades of red!

Seriously, I'd be interested in what anyone comes up with. It could be added to the recovery thread at the top.

Here's a picture of a single lung shot , notice the bubbles and the slight pinkish color , this doe went over 100 yards before bedding down offering me another shot to finish her off.

The two big ones are, if its darker, usually a liver hit. Brighter, and with bubbles usually is a lung hit.

I read this book from Cabelas on the subject and it helped tremendously.

I think it was called Tracking Wounded Deer or something simple like that. The guy who wrote it isa genius. Look it up or go to your local bookstore.
