Here's a photo of a Horror House in Tokyo with a few touches, maybe pushed it too far but let me know what you think. Cheers Daz

Hmmm! Very interesting, you should have got a few people walking through.

Yeah mate. Maybe I should've cut the shutter speed down to 20 secs instead. But if you have a close look you can actually see 2 ghosts at the door and a couple next to the wall by the lamp.

Strange and curious shot, I like it.

I saw them.....aaah! Fantastic??? Is there anything else to find out?

@Dolphin: No mate just to two pairs of ghosts. Unless you find more then it is a real scary image.
not too o.t.t. yet daz. the wheels haven't fallen off the wagon with this one. the ghost images are very subtle - took me a few moments to spot them actually. works well mate. shame about harsh lines at the top of the picture - a bit tricky to crop out though i guess.

@Stu: Thanks mate. I was a little worried about the lines at the top but I liked the green colour. I might try and do somehting to blur the lines out.
Stunning and mysterious light!

@Still: Thanks mate.
Very interesting mysterious mood you've created here! Good job!

@Craiger: It does have a mood to it. It was actually quite fun making this one. Thanks mate.
Looks really spooky. Great ghost effect.

@Martin: Thanks Martin. The idea of adding ghosts popped in my head as soon as I saw this horror house.
Strange, scary and... nice shot !

@Tim: Thanks Tim. Glad you like it.
Sixty seconds....holy crap. Definitely has a spooky-nightmarish feel to it.

@Angry Buddha: Yeah I thought 60sec was a little too long might give it a 20 sec job next time I visit this place.
Very cool. Love the ghosts! Perhaps a more centred framing with the shutter-plane parallel to the building would have improved things with the top corrugated steel top.

@Damon Schreiber: Thanks for the feedback mate I might try and take a shot here again later at night when there are less people around. To get this shot I was set up next to a food stand so I wasn't in the way of the traffic. Directly infront means I have to set up at the base of a busy stairway, but shouldn't be a problem later in the evening.
Bravo!! Nihongo de iidesuka ?? :D Sugoku iidesu!! SUTEKI work Darren-san :)

@H.O: よく見に来てくれてありがとうございます。 良いお年を。
Wonderfully spooky ! I want to see it bigger, but my screen is too small.

@Kate: Thanks Kate. Sorry I can't help with the screen, you know what to ask Santa for next year.
Love it. not overcooked at all for me. the ghosts are a wonderful touch, I applaud the technical aspects but above all else your imagination! fine fine fine job!
