They don't get to dress like that in the US very often, so this was probably fun for them. :-)

I do hope those are contact lenses on the masked girl! Love the colors - result of the film you used or post processing?

This is a very strong picture Mephisto... The way the shadow over the man's face echoes the mood is something...

This is a very powerful shot, the crumbling building and the man's face in shadow it all works together.

I'm going to be painfully aware of that from now on, you know. That whole left thumb thing...

I love your collection title. This does seem to fit there. Nice work

Sin City advanced

Comment by Melethia:
A nice cross between the advanced and the basic version would be good - I say this because she is the star in the basic version and the building almost overpowers her in this one. Not to say this one isn't good - it very much is! I just think she needs to be a touch more prominent.

OK, duh. Just read the rest of the comments. Ignore. :-) It's not the skin tone - I think that works fine in this edit - just the building detail somehow pulls you from her if that makes sense. Oh never mind... it's growing on me...
