Hi Seb -

It's fun to see your new experiments and I'm glad to see you are using more of an, er, human element in your images. I really like the idea and the paneled framing but I have to agree with the others about the lack of blood. It all just looks a little too clean, the hands the saw, just not edgy/dirty enough. I also feel like the chain saw appears to be awkwardly held, and over posed. As a suggestion for a variation on this scene I would try having a shadow covered figure sitting/crouching on the left edge, with the chain saw well lit and then of course the feet of your victim on the right. Or perhaps just a big chain saw shadow across the hedge and then your victim's feet? Then you wouldn't have to get red dye all over your equipment.

I just need a little more than a hand and a saw to give me that creepy feeling. Oh your poor neighbors though, what will they think?
