I made this shot last week at my brother in law's house. I did this for a photo-contest with a horror theme. What do you guys think about this?

Canon EOS 50D
EF-S17-85mm f/4-5.6 IS USM @ 17mm

1/4
ISO400
2 Canon 580ex ii Speedlites, one on the camera (M flash on 1/32) the second one on the stairs to the right of the grim reaper (M flash at 1/64

Some RAW editting, highlights and shadow adjustment to make the grim reaper as black as I could and off course the B/W conversion.

It's spooky but the grim reaper doesn't carry an axe, but rather a sickle.

Yeah, I know, but we didn't had a sickle :)

Thanks for the comments so far!

It's very good. I might have clone-stamped the actual person in the grim reaper costume out, so all you see of the grim reaper is the shadow projected on the wall.
