Ghost

For my get pushed challenge this week Northy @northy suggested a ghostly shot. Here's my attempt. An interesting exercise -- and definitely things to consider when setting such a thing up and processing afterward. When I put the two shots together (with and without "ghost") I tried out blacking out the portion of curtain behind the ghost that is showing through from the "without" photo beneath. But I didn't like the way it looked so went back to the simpler ghost through the curtain (not entirely logical, because she's opening it too, but it seemed to my eye to look better). Feedback and suggestions welcome. My photoshop skills for this type of thing are not very well developed (using PS Elements 6, so a version that's a bit older, also)

Awesome ghostly shot :)

Cool and creepy and intriguing! Looks a bit as tho' she is one w the curtain and perhaps trying to break free from it... Nicely done!

Neat b&w shot

I really like your shot! We are get pushed partners again! :) You are very creative with the challenges you are given, so I want you to choose a fairy tale or a story you like and interpret it through photography. I am really looking forward to what you come up with!
