Something about the expression on the face of this statue ...

and one more for good measure

Thanks for looking

Right on. I love this series...but then again, cemeteries are my favorite place to take photos. The face is really eerie. The second pic looks like she is staring right at you. Very well done.

hey Chiller I noticed you are from scarborough .... just up from scarborough is Whitby .... if you ever get over here ... VISIT !

They got the graveyard that inspired Bram Stoker to write Dracula ...... can't get better than that ... I have some photos of there .. but they are snaps ..

If anyone is interested I can dig them out.

EDITED HERE >>>>>>

And I loved tose pics ... the gravestone specially!

very cool (dark) shots!! (not meaning underexposed!) hehe.. scary statue!

I admire anyone who can carve a statue. It's amazing the expressions they create out of rock. Great photos of it too. Like the head stones as well. It's a bit sad how they're all exactly the same.

I can't really place the expression of the girl though. Sometimes it looks like she's really really tired and sad, sometimes she's about to throw up, or like she's just done something really bad and is sorry. strange.

you named it appropriately.....she is haunting.... i love her face, too... your right. it just grabs you...pulls you in.... not in an eerie way, more in a lonely, lost way...

wonder if its over a child or adult..? very cool shot...nicely done...

 

[Artemis]

Great shots...really good..

I really like the composition of the statue shots ... I can't help but wonder what they'd look like in black and white .. I find the flecks of colour a bit distracting ... but that could just be me ... good work anyhow :mrgreen:

Very cool series. The title does create that eerie feeling.

great picture , i like the statue it looks evil
wow that looks like a place by my house in saint john new bruinswick in the big ol canada

 

[elsaspet]

Really really nice. Love the DOF. I kinda wonder what it would be like in B&W too.........

 

[Matty-Bass]

Could be, lol. Great majority of people (like me) are from Canada. I'm from the prairie, and it looks like pursuer is from canada as well.

Great emotion in the first shot! It reminds me exactly of some time in my life when i saw a statue liek that in a graveyard. Just the chipped part on her chest brings back memories i can't place in my head.

Love the series!
