Artist's Comments

I am not a ghost hunter~but I have an active imagination! I think this print did a fair job of relaying what the invisible action taking place in our world's graveyards might look like. I had my sister, the "ghost", walk a straight line from one headstone to another. I had her pause for brief intervals while I flashed her with a dimmed light. This 30 second exposure was the result. My one fault was shooting with 3200 speed film, which is exceedingly light sensitive and grainy. When I saw the contact sheets, it looked as though I was shooting in broad daylight when it indeed was more like 3 AM! Thus, the visual cloud patterns at night and the burned-in foreground.

Why...thank ye, darlink!! I feel so pleased and honored. I try to do strange, turn-yer-head-sideways-like-a-mutt type things with photography and I'm so happy that this caught your attention. I checked out your gallery too, and I really like your drawings! Their intelligent and funny--especially the girl who stole the pope! Thanks again for visiting...

Wow, I can't get enough of your gallery. I think your techniques are so great. You really seem to throw everything into your work and I just love it.
