Second in my "Gothickal"series. Influenced by Grant Wood's portrait.

Taken on Sunday in bright sunshine.

Think this photography thing has gone way beyond "hobby" and "passion" and is now bordering on "obsession". Maybe I have OCD (obsessive camera disorder)?

I've always loved the great Hollywood photographers such as Hurrell and Powolny. Realizing that much of their work relied on armies of retouchers, I thought I'd have a try. I'm really pleased with the result.
