    Spooooooky!

    Awesome shot. That is a spooky-looking tree. All those dry branches clutching like arthritic hands. Eeek!

    Scarry!

    Not only is the poem and the picture creepy but your background has ghost areas too. Whoa... There are things missing like someone took off with names and faces and....Schreeeeeeeeeech.
    My left foot hit my right foot. Hahahahaha ahhhh blahhhhhh! BOO!
    This is fantastic. I love your pictures mixed with your thoughts always.

    Thanks for reading the collab. Strastruck was depressed so I suggested a collaboration, and I started it off, and gave it some humor to cheer her up. It's our first and we had a ball writing it. We'll do that again soon. She went to bed in a better frame of mind. Just glad I could help. I love you!

    that was just... spooky. there is something about trees, either they are beautiful and fill me wi' peace, or they send me runing for cover. erie, but no less perfect.

    I like the pic, I like the piece, I like the piece in the pic...lol!. It's a good piece, has a nice back-drop to it, tho, I would have picked a different color than red. Bright red at that.

    It reminds me of a book called 'The Dark is Rising' which I like very much. Specific objects evoking nameless terrors.

    Just a little eerie, but still very beautiful. Halloween is a nice holiday, and the story behind it is interesting. At least someone is in the spirit! Have a nice halloween.
