I feel like I'm on a bad trip, or woken up inside one of less than wholesome dreams... but I must say, this dream has very good lighting and a chick that would be great if it wasn't for the makeup job. It's a bit too Stephen King for me.
You asked us how this image makes us FEEL, and I can't quite figure it out. Balloons and clowns are supposed to be a happy thing, her "smile" is supposed to be happy. There is nothing threatening in the image, yet it all looks fake and utterly disconcerting.
It isn't scary enough for horror, it certainly isn't friendly enough for party - what DO you have in mind for it?
Now where is that pin I dropped.....
ever mind, I wouldn't do that to such a great image here.
Wonderful subject and a wondeerful composition that just works.....
It's kinda creepy. The colors are halloween-ish, clowns (particularly ones with menacing smiles like hers) are creepy. And the fact that she blends into the background is visually...creepy, considering the overall tone of the image.
So, bad idea for a kid's event. Good idea for a halloween DPC challenge.
I really love the image but there does seem to be something subtly evil about the face and I am not sure why. Like one of those evil clowns in a horror movie. Great colours and lighting and a really makes me look again quality. Anyway very cool shot, be interested to know what response you were trying for.
