About the Image(s)

This came out of my desire to do a shoot inspired by the gothic Hammer Horror films of the '60s and '70s. The image was taken a few years ago at a park near Sanford, Florida and it was shot at iso 200, f5.6, 1/60, and at a focal length of 36mm. Adjustments were done in Photoshop Elements and Portrait Pro.

Appropriate to the season, right? An entertaining image. It's a little tight on the right. I like the way the vampire(?) is looking at the viewer as if disturbed in the middle of its conquest.   Posted: 10/07/2024 19:46:19

Thanks, curious as to why you think it's cropped too tight on the right.   Posted: 10/08/2024 14:02:37

It's cutting off part of her fingers.   Posted: 10/08/2024 16:54:17

I agree that the right side is too tight. Better to have more space. It is also better NOT to crop away the hands of the victim.

The image is sharp.   Posted: 10/12/2024 13:28:09

Good picture for the right time, if the background would be darker will be more scare.   Posted: 10/12/2024 20:56:25
