I tried lighting this from behind more, but the edges of the preserved gator head showed. I'd appreciate any other lighting tips I can get! The head was massaged with vaseline to get an "alive" sheen. The head came from a shop in the keys. The foot belongs to my son. If you are considering blood: red food coloring in corn syrup looks more realistic than ketchup. |

i bet you got this head in a voodoo shop in new orleans. this could be a good shot but i dont think that the illumination is particularly interesting or flattering. looks like straight on camera flash, which is rarely appealing. try some different lighting. mag 99 |

I like the black background. Maybe needs a little more space at the bottom. It seems cropped a little too close. |

Excellent! Even if it is a dried out, small aligator head. Maybe a bit overly dark, considering the darkness of the aligator's head. Sharp focus and good DOF. 8 Swash |

A little blood (ketchup) couldn't livened things up a bit. |

Ouch! That thing could hurt dead or alive. |

It really would be frightening if this were real. Still it works in a humorous sort of way. |

I like this photo. It's a fun fear submission. It might have been a little nicer if there was a little more light on the background so that the croc's head wouldn't blend into it. Also, the flash tended to wash out your colors a little. If you were to add a little saturation it would have given it a little more visual punch. Shey. |

I like this photo but I don't think it actually shows fear. It shows something to perhaps be afraid of. |
