Eric Cousineau from Sherwood Park, Canada

@Eric Cousineau: That Jackass, he knows how I love hideaways, evil, evil twin...probably helped HItchcock make 'the birds' too...
Barbara from Florida, United States
Well done, Lorraine. B&W, perfect choice. It feels like something out of a novel or movie and something is about to happen. Like someone suddenly coming up from behind, tapping you on the shoulder just as you are ready to hit the shutter button, and ask WHAT ARE YOU DOING ON MY PROPERTY!!!! This one is certainly a thriller. Love it!

@Barbara: Oh Lady B. I love the story, is he dark and dangerous, maybe if I run away quickly enough, I can get a photo of him ahahahahahah....Aren't you a lovely little inspirer ;)
@Lee: Thanks a lot Lee, I appreciate it :)
@Stunner: Thanks very much Stunner :)
tyan from Singapore
hoho,i like this,bw gives it a very mysterious and eerie feel,like you were peeping in from the trees like an evil one,waiting to pounce on victims inside the house.or a helpless damsel in distress wondering whether she should seek refuge in the eerie looking house?
BOO!:)
9 Apr 2009 2:10pm
@tyan: Ok now I'm scared...great story Tyan, I wouldn't hurt a fly, never mind a helpless damsel, although Imight shoot her, mmmahahahahah
Cheryl from Texas, United States
great spooky "psyco" looking place! That huge window in the front door of the house makes me think it's a secret place that you have to give the password to get in! lol good one Lorraine!
9 Apr 2009 2:39pm
@Cheryl: I love spooks, yet I'm hopeful at hearts, any day now someone's going to give me a house, just for my pleasure...thanks Cheryl lol
Viewfinder from Bradenton, FL, United States
Something twisted in there, I think. Mysterious, foreboding. Like the start of a scary movie. Oh, do I hear a chain saw buzzing...?
9 Apr 2009 4:02pm
@Viewfinder: Oh Now I'm scared Glenn, I hate Chain Saws with a Passion, they hurt Trees....they should be thrown out in the deepest hole with water in it and slowly rust...God forgive this hate in my heart, the saw is but a tool, not a sinner...shall I go on LOL sorrry ...you've inspired me again ;)
Michael Rawluk from Williams Lake, BC, Canada
Calusarus had it right. Very Psycho. Terrific b+w and the tipped camera really works.
9 Apr 2009 4:10pm
@Michael Rawluk: Thanks Michael, I was just telling Vf about the psycho chain saw!!!!

Nina from Hamburg, Germany
Great shot, Lorraine... a view into a secret garden? I would like to sit on the white chair and watch from a distance whether magic things will be happen round about this interesting tree.... :)

Looking through the trees at this angle is like the start of a horror thriller, I think I just saw the curtain moving.... :-//
