When darkness follows

[Creativesnaps]

KEEP RUNNING TO THE LIGHT AND DON'T LOOK BACK, AS DARKNESS FOLLOWS AND IS GAINING FAST.

 

My wife's niece doing a good job at acting for me.  We went to an old church to help create a little fear.

She should take it up as career, there's real expression of the scene in her face

 

The scene is very surreal, but your wife looks somewhat superimposed on the background?

Thanks Dave.  Its my wife's niece.

 

I used a three light setup and kept both rim lights gridded to keep the light more direct on her which gave the separation.

Its my wife's niece.

 

 

Too late, CS - I've already reported you to the constables.

 

I love the feeling of sheer terror in this - yet there's nothing terrifying in the image. It's all implied by the light and the child's expression. Great stuff!

Oops!, note to self, "read the post properly"

 

You did say it was your wife's niece, but I missed the niece bit

 I thought I best mention it quickly

[NannyFerret]

I read it wrong too. My eyesight is my excuse! lol.  I thought for one moment you had a child bride.  

 

It's a brilliant shot, and I love the lighting and the way it's just concentrated on your neice.

Great shot, beautifully staged. Apart from the lighting rig, what else did you do to the picture, post-processing?

[Leon]

Love it

[colinb]

another excellent well thought-out image - love it

[Kobione]

Great stuff again, Creative - scaryness implied by the light and her face, but nothing actually scary in the shot!! Well done

[Creativesnaps]

Thanks for all your comments.

 

Yeah with this image I wanted the viewers mind to wonder what she is running from.
