It's kind of hard to see, at least on my laptop, but the picture of the crucifixion in the heading of my blog contains a skull underneath the cross. It represents the skull of the first Adam.
Although it is mostly speculation, traditionally, it is held that Jesus was crucified where Abraham offered Isaac, on the grave of Adam. It is not necessarily true, but it makes for a good picture to focus death and life, law and gospel.
