 Something i thought of last minute and see what comes of it.

Was shot in my front yard using a cardboard box some styrofoam for the cross and pulled some grass out and taped to the side to give it some detail. Could of done a lot better if I didn't think of it at the last moment. Oh well. also.. IT WAS HOT! 90 degree's is to hot for SoCal :)

I love how the kid is lit: it lamost has a comic book feel to it. I think I would have cropped off a bit of the bottom to have a bit more sky showing. Good work.

Interesting composition, but there is a little too much detail for me to truly be able to call this a silhouette. Good clarity on the image.

This one is probably the most eeerie one. I feel like up looking up from within the grave itself. Very nice composition. <7>
