If anyone needs me, I'll be hiding behind the sofa!

The zoom effect works so well with the mask!

[Humphrey Hippo]

Ha! Cool result. :)

[Rik]

Brilliant effect!

[Paul "Snapchap" Everest]

Love the shot! I used a mask like this some time back - they are such great props!

Fabulous! Sill can't master the zoom burst, must practice some more

Brilliant-love the lil' bit of mystery & jammies are deadly cool:)

[Ann H. LeFevre]

Wow- I am not one to watch scary movies- but this shot reminds me of the one with the guy who wears a hockey mask (?). I'll be hiding with Mr. Biscuit!

[Sue]

creepy

[Daryl O'Hare]

Cool! I played with the idea the other day after reading some info online and got some interesting shots. But I was just playing--will give another go if I get a chance.

[KWind]

Great zoom shot!

[Taffy]

[Channelf]

brilliant execution !

[Katia]

Spoooky! ;)

[Karen H]

Fantastic use of zoom burst and the placement of the zoom point.

[Mary Downing Hahn]

I like it -- but have no doubt it's difficult. The mask is a great choice for the burst though.

[Simply Amanda]

Nice zoom. I find that I get it sqiggly when I try the effect. Did you use a tripod?

[☠northy]

@amandal for this one, yes i used a tripod... altho' i did some experimenting without and got some cool results... just liked this one more...

[Alexander]

I really like it and think you now have to create a touring seminar based on finding your inner self, using this as the main picture for everything. Very cool result, Northy.

[Penny Price]

Perfect. Very clever, fav.

[Cathrine Mitchell]

You are so creative and have a real flare for the unusual. This should be hanging in a gallery so much to see and imagine in the composition. FAV

[SquamLoon]

This came out beautifully! Something I definitely must try one of these days.

[Dawn]

I think this is a great composition and a great result!!
