Ghost in the Machine
by graysummers
Took this a while back. People told me my photographs had a Gothic feel to them. So !!Subconsciously having been inspired by the Grim Reaper in those old Bill and Ted movies and Tim Burton imagery and now, on refelection, linked to having seen stills from 'The Seventh Seal' and that game of chess, I wanted a feel of the White Mask look. I wanted a gaunt sharp mask feel surrounded by grain and darkness.

Cheers Mac. Bit of dodging and burning works wonders.

'Artsy' is nice. I used to make 'artsy' pottery. I would love to emulate it in the photography line. Good fortune.
