    Re: Stalker

    This is pretty neat, Tom. I like the whole idea here and I think you have something to begin this theme with. My only suggestion or concern is I think seeing a slightly more defined outline of the driver and perhaps a little more definition into what it is that she sees or is stalking. This could be the start of a mysterious series, if you so wished to pursue it as such
    I like the balance of light orbs in the windshield as placed against the masses of dark being the rear view mirror, driver and dashboard.
    Overall, the entire image has a good feel and pleasing way about it, even if ever so mysterious.
    please do not edit and repost my photos

    Scary Tom. It makes ones imagination run wild. Alfred Hitchcock would be proud. Nice work.

    A little more red and we'd have the opening scene of Taxi Driver. I can almost hear Bernard Herrmann's score as I look at this.

    Gary, Greg and Dray
    Thank you so much for the comments. I took a few of this type but this was the best of a poor lot. The conditions were almost totally dark and of course everything hand held, so poor quality to begin with. My hope was to turn the poor quality to advantage and hopefully produce an atmosphere; something with dirty mood and menace rather than a technically good image.
    I'm glad it seems to be working in that way for you.
