What is lurking in the woods? by mcsiegle

What is lurking in the woods?

Can you tell we are gearing up for our annual family trek north to Minnesota nest month for Crypticon (horror movie convention)? Many thanks to our son, Dan, who agreed to model for me, providing the human element of this composition before we settled down to watch the film this evening. It was my turn to choose the movie and luckily Dan had my choice in his vast collection. "Fright Night" is an 80s vampire flick, which features three of the celebrity guests who will be at Crypticon.

While the picture of Dan making the scary face was taken tonight, the overlay was out of my archives-- taken at SweetWood some time ago and recently used for my collage for the MFPIAC challenge. Re-re-using for my get pushed challenge to do a double exposure in which at least one of the exposures includes a person.
@johnmaguire This isn't what I had originally thought/hoped to do, but at least I have something for you. Earlier this afternoon, as I commented on your photo, I thought I would have to give you a rain check.

Well done.

You have certainly made Dan look scary.

Oh, Mary. I really like the eeriness of this. FAV

@mcsiegle This turned out great! Dan did a great job posing for the photo and the woods give it a perfectly haunting vibe. Reminds me of something that would be on the cover of a horror story. Way to get the challenge done! :)

I would be taken aback to see that face coming out of the woods like that.

Oh, great composite! This came out fantastic

Hello Mary,
I like this image. I am curious though as an artist do you personally consider this image a double exposure or a collage layering two photos? I an curious to hear more about your art process.
Regards,
Sam.
