Ugh, all that ectoplasm!! Nostalgic characters and magical effects combine to make this a super fun image! The vibrant colors and beautifully lit scene really makes this image scary good! This is a very successful combination of cartoony characters and a realistic, real world environment. And the ectoplasm drops captured in motion adds to the dynamism of this image! Nice!

Wonderful! I love how you've brought such vibrant color and light to the dark side! And I love the set, which really helps make the image more dynamic. Not sure if I'm looking at a custom diorama, or a creative use of some cheese graters, but it works! I'm thinking that all the holes in the walls and ceiling were caused by the storm troopers poor marksmanship.

Is this toy photography or is it art? The answer is simply "Yes!" I'm not going to lie (for fear my nose will grow like Pinocchio's here), I really love this image. The silhouette of a toy that is instantly identifiable as Pinocchio works beautifully against a dark background filled with refracted light (if that's what it indeed is). In my mind this could be the moment the Blue Fairy waves her wand and turns Pinocchio into a real little boy. This image makes me look, and it makes me wonder.
