 While waiting for the little ghosts and goblins to show up I started to play around with something for this challenge. The shots were more clear in the begining and minus my son in the corner, but the more I played the more something was missing, so I shot up the ISO to get some noise and focused on the candles to allow the DoF to move my son further away from the window. This was shot in my dining room and through the our 125 year old windows full of lead blown glass as well as the storm window, so it added a ripple affect to the shot.

Creepy, spooky, and great for Halloween. I just wish there was less noise in it.

Cool idea. I would have made the window frame straighter and chosen less distracting background for the candles. I love the face that you can make out on the left -- really ghostly.

I like the barely visible face hiding there!
