Congrats Jacko! One of my faves from this challenge.

Oh yeah ... and my appologies to team 10D. I decided to use my Canon Powershot G2 instead of the 10D because of the flip up LCD screen. It was a lot easier to compose (from the ground up) with the flip up monitor.

Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee. Another purty wibbon. Next goal ... get a nice yellow one. :)

Excellent job - I can feel Norman's presence in the photo!!! 9

Terrific composition. Good choice for black and white. Good luck.
Post actions
Solid 9 from me. I would have posed it and cropped it a bit higher - it looks like it's pointing at the baby, which is scary enough! I like that you have a victim but it's hard to figure it out in two seconds - it takes a few more (cuz most people aren't shaped like that). I love this photo and hate you for it!

DOuble sillouette works great.

Nice pic. Very moody. I like that you focused in on the knife and hand and kept the victim unfocused.

My favorite & first place winner! 9!

Classic! Might've cropped a little more off the bottom. Good contrast.
Post actions
Very nicely done. This was my original idea but I dropped it. You did it much better than I could eve have.
Post actions
Of all the attempts at Psycho in the challenge, this is by far the best. You have the knife, the silhouette of the girl in the shower, and perfect lighting. The only problem I see is that the original scene was at night wasn't it? Oh well, that would've been much more difficult to shoot. Great job! - 10

Excellent! A for sure winner
Post actions
There are several shots that depict this scene, but this one I think is the better of them. 7
Post actions
nice shot. love the foreboding silohuetted killer, as well as the very soft tones created in the shower curtain. the only thing i would change is where the hand aligns with the shower rod. i wish they didn't. :o)
Post actions
great recreation of the shower scene 10
Post actions
classic in more ways than one.. 10
Post actions
Perfect! This is the winner for me, nothing to criticise at all. Just fantastic - 10.

Post actions
This is great! the best psycho image!
Post actions
Wow, a lot of Psycho's. This is the best image in the challenge IMO. See you at the top. 10
Post actions
I see three times "psycho" in this challenge and yours is by far the best. A clear and threathening knife and the silhouette of a women in the background. Good use of light and shadow. Only suggestion for improvement : in the top right corner behing the hand and knife-end there is a dark object/shadow and because of that you can't see the outline of the knife any longer. It would have been better with a lighter background also in that corner. Can't vote yet but you would have gotten a 9 from me.
Post actions
The best of the 'Psycho' shots in this challenge by a mile! Great lighting, nice sharp silhouette, interesting composition. 10
Post actions
So good I can hear the sound :-)
Post actions
Excellent!
Post actions
Love the soft focus of this shot and the creepy feeling it gives. Well done. 9
Post actions
I would have scored this a few points higher with a better subject behind the curtain. However, overall this is a well composed shot. Great use of black and white.
