The Haunting

The Haunting

Description


---
This is actually reworked from a trip to Photoshop World in Las Vegas in 2006. (OY!)
----
I was heavy into vultures in those days and when the Mandalay Bay Hotel came out looking spooky, I thought I'd make it a bit spookier with a monster-sized buzzard presiding.
----
In another incarnation, I had a little witch flying by, but who would believe THAT?
----
I used an old 10D converted for infrared, which I was also big into way back then.
-----

Exif: F Number: 5.6, Exposure Bias Value: 2.00, ExposureTime: 1/90 seconds, Flash: did not fire., ISO: 100, White balance: Auto white balance, FocalLength: 32.00 mm, Model: Canon EOS 10D

Ooo! Neato, Michelle! I'd have believed the witch, too! :D Maybe you can show us at Halloween and I can totally fall for it at that time?? :)

This is fun (seriously!) and very very frightening! (Joking) :D

Love it!
