 Despite the Buffett reference...

This shot accidentally happened. One of my best friends stopped over tonight to raid my closet for a last minute Halloween costume party. Armed with quite a bit of gothic mishmash from my wardrobe and a "Jack Sparrow" wig she transformed herself into a tough little pirate gal for the evening. I blackmailed her for the photo op and somehow she appropriated a bottle of whisky from the cabinet during the clicking.. the rest is history. Or at least it looks like it. The grain is partially from the shot itself, partially from USM, partially from spotty-dodging, partially added in as noise.
