Something different this week. A lot different actually, because it's: morose; ugly; frightening; sick; off-beat and even psychotic.

It also happens to be the most elaborate photo I've ever taken, and one that I am very proud of as a result.

Great photo Bruce, if only there was a hand around your neck to make it seem more scary and realistic

other than that really good pic

I see your point, but to be honest, then the picture wouldn't have quite been what I wanted. My intention was never to force the point of drowing in a conventional manner, but more from the stand point of one psychologically drowning.

Something watery from me as well... And a big thanks to El Zorro and MikeJ for voting for my pigeon.
