Oh what fun playing with chocolate syrup is, I will say it stings a lot if it drips in your eye!.

This was lit with a hand lamp from a hardware store clamped to a kitchen chair. This was also the first shot in a while where I ventured off that auto setting on the dial and shot in manual

There was not a lot of processing done to this shot, I converted it to b&w, adjusted the levels and curves, and added a border.

This is somewhere in the very significant intersection between Dali and the Marx Brothers. I think they're making a movie about Hitchcock.

The photography is good, but the model's expression and hand position are unconvincing.

Makes me think of 'Syler' from 'Heroes'.

Looks like what a CSI investigator might capture at a crime scene. Arm does a nice job bringing my eye back around to the girl's face ... which due to the subject matter, I'd just as soon not be looking at. This creates some dramatic tension which I like.

Gruesome, but nice shot!

I was scared to open it.

The hand makes a nice curve!
