Round Robin Photo Challenge

Fresh when it gets here from Julie Barrett
Wednesday, October 18, 2006


This week's challenge is Very Scary! I was looking for something just a little bit different for the season. Blame me. Yeah, go ahead. I'm a mashochist. Heap the blame on me! ;-) For that you get The Eyes!:

Midnight_Eyes

This is our cat Midnight. She certainly has that demonic glow about her, doesn't she? The fact is that she happened to be looking right at the camera when the flash went off. I have done nothing to enhance the eyes, though I did do a couple of things to bring out the detail so you wouldn't see just a cat-shaped blob with lights.

Now, you want to see something really scary? I mean, something that will rattle you to the bones?

This is my desk.

Well, it was my desk before I lit in to cleaning on Tuesday.

Not so scary now, is it? Okay then, how about a spider?

Spider

(We saw a baby tarantula at that same building, but the picture I shot wasn't very good.)

Whether or not you found those scary, thanks for visiting! I hope you have a happy and safe Halloween.

Black cat with glowing eyes! I just love cats! Check out my blog, a few entries ago, for posted photos of our new kitties! Your scariest photo for me is that HUGE, hairy spider! I would not have had time to take that photo...my legs would've been moving as quickly as possible in the opposite direction! lol --Robin

Great scary stuff! Very creative items you came up with. I think I have a glowing cat eyes shot somewhere but not nearly as dramatic as this one!

I've seen lots of glowing, flashed out animal eyes, but nothing nearly that extreme, or contrasting that much with the rest of the (in this case) cat! But that spider is truly alarming looking. Seems a lot of people went for the spiders today, but that photo is really especially good.
