i really like the layering, feels like taking slow but thoughtful steps backwards in time.

It's not the sepia that's muddy, it's the original photo of me. LOL

It took me a while to peruse now the Poe challenge and, yes, that's a long stop.
Freedom and confinement well done here.
The sepia tone is just too muddy, but such is the crypt also!

Ingenious construction.

This is my top choice. Lovely, thoughtful (it's beautifully conceived, and executed with uncommon restraint), and just wonderful depth of imagery & rich with quiet symbolism. It's just superb. 10. Thank you, and please accept an "Order of the Thumb' which, together with just 5 bucks in cash, will entitle you to a cup of coffee.

It doesn't seem very high res, which takes away a little bit from it, but it's very creepy all the same!

Very haunting and extremely well executed (pardon the puns LOL). Love it!
