Prelude by graemestevens

Prelude

Sorry about this sad state of affairs, but there will be no sea side shot today...not that I don't have more stored away but I need break from them and I'm sure you do to. Instead, this is a set up from a shot that I've just done, without the vital element included - far from the finished product. It will do for today.
The lighting is fantastic!

Beautiful!! I love the lighting and the feel of the whole scene. The skulls make it all the more awesome.
September 24th, 2015  
Amazing layout and incredible lighting.
September 24th, 2015  
Very cool setup and awesome lighting! Fav
September 24th, 2015  
Very cool..trying to figure out hanging background? Fav 📷
September 24th, 2015  
Extremely fabulous on black, most excellent lighting.
September 24th, 2015  
fascinating and creepy... i am curious to know what's next!
September 24th, 2015  
Wow, all I can say is WOW:).
September 24th, 2015  
Anxiously awaiting the bizarre conclusion!!
September 24th, 2015  
cool and creepy
September 24th, 2015  
Very cool. I think we should have a Graeme Stevens challenge in October, where we all try to put up one of your style of photos. Like there was an @northy challenge. Are you up for that?perfect for Halloween, though a very tough challenge and we could never get to your well thought out and disturbing and addictive visions
September 24th, 2015  
And this one a fav for me
September 24th, 2015  
Nail-bitingly anxiously intriguing.
September 24th, 2015

@epcello Nah, just a little...odd ;)
@timewalker Thanks very much :)
@homeschoolmom Thank you very much :)
@rosiekerr You'll just have to wait ;)
@trinda Thank you very much - and I'm flattered. It would be an odd experience but I'd love to see a bit more weirdness around here so why not! Only if @northy plays along as well ;)
@photographycrazy Only a few days to wait - it's the set up for my 5+2 shot...weird again
@amandal In that case, all I can say is Thank you :)
@northy You'll have to wait until Sunday. Well, my Sunday anyway...
@bill_fe Thank you kindly good sir :)
@nanderson Thanks very much - the back ground is painstakingly draped cloth and curtains
@marymacaroni Thank you very much indeed :)
@elytra Thank you very much :)
@kerosene Thank you very much - I'm quite pleased with the finished version, but you'll have to wait a few days to see that ;)
@monty147 Thank you so much :)
September 24th, 2015

September 24th, 2015  
September 24th, 2015

@graemestevens yep - you know :)
September 24th, 2015  
@annied Well yes, I am omnipotent. As opposed to impotent. I hope.
September 24th, 2015  
@graemestevens you're potent - forget the prefixes
September 24th, 2015  
@annied I say!
September 24th, 2015  
@graemestevens what - what do you say?
September 24th, 2015  
Awesome shot, I'm looking forward to the finished product.
September 24th, 2015  
Looks like the preparations for a funeral, quite mysterious!
September 24th, 2015  
Love the story and mystery this tells. Well done sir!
September 24th, 2015

September 25th, 2015  
Well in you hemisphere there will be many more days of "beach" weather, here sadly they are diminishing. Though we are in an extended summer right now. I hope that light didn't hurt your eyes.
September 25th, 2015  
@joansmor It was almost blinding...and I never go to the beach in the summer
September 25th, 2015  
@graemestevens Why doesn't that surprise me?
September 25th, 2015  
Looks brill Graeme...
September 25th, 2015  
@tonygig Thanks very much :)
September 25th, 2015  
This looks promising... I do like a bit of skullduggery!
