Upping my previous vote. Very well done. love the lips and the eyes. The lighting is a little too "cheerful" for the topic though...something moodier may have suited better? Just thinking out loud, never took points off.

Hmmmm, I wonder if Poe even knew about Dia de los Muertos... Fabulous makeup and flower adornments. But my favorite part is the tiny edge of light on the shoulder :-)
