Redrum by spanner

Redrum

Somebody had to do it! Another for the Arbus challenge. Modern day take with the clothes however we tried to get similar facial expressions.
Not a great photo but I just wanted to add another to the challenge as I am struggling for inspiration.
I should watch again Shining haven't seem it for too many years. Your daughter doesn't look weird enough I'm afraid...

@channelf - thanks for taking the time to look and comment. Don't be afraid of her not looking weird enough, I take that as a compliment.

This is great. You have very amenable, and photogenic kids

She doesn't look weird but this is a very striking image. I like it.

@rachelwithey Thanks Rachel - they are very good, understanding kids. They also respond very well to bribes.

@dulciknit Thanks Alison - I am not sure about it being a striking image, but I am thrilled you think so. Thank you for taking the time to look and comment.

Very striking. You can tell that she understood what you were trying to achieve. The expressions are great - different but subtly so.

@northy good it's not just me. This project is costing me a fortune in chocolate and treats........Thanks for your kind comments.

@spanner i figure it's a comparatively small price to pay so i just kinda go with it... one day they're gonna start holding out for cold-hard cash and then i'm gonna be in a world of trouble ;p

I love Diane Arbus and I think you have capture the challenge beautifully. This is such a great shot!

Woah! I can't watch that film any more - I tried again a couple of years ago, but had my face in a cushion and gave up. I've seen it loads and I think the anticipation was worse. Have a fav for seriously freaking me out. Great response to the challenge
