Round Robin Challenge: Spooky Effects

Hi, Robins! It's that time of the year again, when a number of countries and cultures celebrate either Halloween or some similar festival, such as Samhain, Day of the Dead, All Soul's Day, etc. Although our timing this year is a little off, that is the inspiration for our next Challenge. The topic for Saturday, October 19th, 2013 is



The "effects" could be a simple bit of staging, using props or special lighting. Or it could be the settings on your camera, or the way you edit the photo, or all of the above. Just show us something scary, odd or ethereal, using whatever tricks you care to employ. You know how this works, right?

1. Grab your camera and create any kind of spooky image(s). Archived photos are okay as long as you took the photo yourself.

2. RSVP in the comments below with your name and the name and URL of the place you plan to post your photo(s).

3. On the Challenge date, Saturday, Saturday, October 19th, post the results on any blog, social media site or online photo album. Don't forget to link back to here in your entry, so your readers can check out the other Robins' contributions.

4. Please visit the other Robins' entries, and comment if so moved. The list of entries will be posted at the bottom of this entry starting around midnight MST on the Challenge date, and updated through the day.

That's all there is to it! Have fun, and go be photographers!

Karen
