ASWOME JOB BUDDY!, this is FANTASTIC, though now you make me scared to go in my woods LMAO! #4969173

Steven E. Ray October 23, 2007

Yes :) The woods has so many mysterious shadows, all that loom with threat and danger... in our minds. I think that is why so many horror movies have the thrills staged in woods (Watcher in the Woods - 1980; The Deep Dark Woods - 2004; The Woods - 2006; Woods of Evil -2006), in can be a place that stimulates fear and the lurking shadows plays havoc on our susceptible minds. #4969218

Ooooo, wonderfully spooky. And I wonder what all the elements you used were, but no matter--so effective and creative. #4972461

My, what a great image you created! Your imagination and electro technique show no limit. I hope this is not British deth. Remember what the death says in Monty Python's "Meaning of Life"? I didn't like his squeezing hand :) #4983496

WONDERFUL Steven!!!!!!! I am a HUGE Terry Pratchet fan (sort of fantasy/comedy books) and Death is my very favorite character! Pratchet makes him so loveable! #5360604

I remember this one, too!! You built this from sratch is I am recalling correctly.

Interesting about facebook! I am a member too but rarely get on there. I joined when it was little and sweet. NOW I go on there and everyone's conversations are showing there but mine! YIKES! Still INTERNET UN-SAVVY here! HA!

Have you seen my dancing Witch? She is even more cool than the dancing bones!
