Took quick photo of this thing wandering the woods whispering your name, anyone you know?
Brought together several elements and created a Reaper in Photoshop.
Happy Halloween 2007! Entered "Digital Darkroom".

ASWOME JOB BUDDY!, this is FANTASTIC, though now you make me scared to go in my woods LMAO! #4969173Steven E. Ray October 23, 2007
Yes :) The woods has so many mysterious shadows, all that loom with threat and danger... in our minds. I think that is why so many horror movies have the thrills staged in woods (Watcher in the Woods - 1980; The Deep Dark Woods - 2004; The Woods - 2006; Woods of Evil -2006), in can be a place that stimulates fear and the lurking shadows plays havoc on our susceptible minds. #4969218Mitch Spence October 24, 2007
Ooooo, wonderfully spooky. And I wonder what all the elements you used were, but no matter--so effective and creative. #4972461Stan Kwasniowski October 25, 2007
Steve, so this is what he looks like, well I am going to use the peep hole in the door in the future so that when he comes a knocking, I'll be out the back door lol, good shot #4981089Alex T. Mizuno October 25, 2007
My, what a great image you created! Your imagination and electro technique show no limit. I hope this is not British deth. Remember what the death says in Monty Python's "Meaning of Life"? I didn't like his squeezing hand :) #4983496Angie Sidles October 26, 2007

WONDERFUL Steven!!!!!!! I am a HUGE Terry Pratchet fan (sort of fantasy/comedy books) and Death is my very favorite character! Pratchet makes him so loveable! #5360604Laura E. Swan October 09, 2009
