Galloping Green

(Edgy) Toy Story

Tue, 07 Sep 2010 23:19 +0100

I never trusted the Teddy Bears by my own bed as a kid. I always thought there was something "not quite right about them"...Then again, any carnivorous animals that go down to the woods are likely to surprise in unlikely ways...

L-E-A-V-E I-T!

Tue, 07 Sep 2010 00:34 +0100

I definitely know that I'm not alone in my fear of unclogging the InSinkerator. Even when it's unplugged, there's this unnerving feeling that the second your fingers are within reach of the mechanism that WHHOOOOSH, GRIND, CRACK.... Well, you know!

Bio Shock

Sun, 05 Sep 2010 21:39 +0100

Another of my childhood fears (yes, I had many) was the feeling that there was something lurking in the loo. Most unpleasant! Fortunately, there's positive to every negative, and I did end up developing very strong thigh muscles to help with the hovering. The ability to hover, as I'm sure you know, is a very useful skill to have when using a public lavatory! 'nuff said!

What lies Beneath

Used to have dreams as a kid that something was under my bed. Maybe there still is?

Quiet Place

Sometimes you just need to find the quietest place in the house so you can hear yourself think again.

Ascension Thursday

Somedays, you just feel like you're floating.

Religion 2010

Wed, 01 Sep 2010 23:53 +0100

Eyes closed shut, expression censured, ignorance exploited, illumination frowned upon. That's religion 2010

Murder in the First

Tue, 31 Aug 2010 22:21 +0100

We were warned about the Apples; wild and bitter. They weren't wrong, but we just didn't listen. Overnight, the Banana got it in the heart. Poor bastard, he never had a chance!

Haunted Kitchen

At nighttime, there's something decidedly unsettling about looking out of a dark window. You know you're safe indoors, but are you? Are you?

Grizzly Chores

Everyone hates chores, but even psychopaths have to iron when they get home!

Bad Clown

Sat, 28 Aug 2010 23:12 +0100

Oh yeah baby, available for children's birthdays, christenings and family get togethers.

Angst

Fri, 27 Aug 2010 22:48 +0100

On days like this when everything seems to irritate you (for no good reason) sometimes you just want to huddle in a corner, hold your head and scream. Tonight's 365 was ably assisted by Ryan, my nearly 7yr old son :-)

Death by Corporation

Thu, 26 Aug 2010 23:59 +0100

A long days business travel, or there and back again as a hobbit might say, can kill a guy.(238/365)

Comin' to get ya!

Wed, 25 Aug 2010 23:22 +0100

Every good psycho needs a black&decker. They're reliable, lightweight and comfortable to wield. The same cannot be said for tights; they're just hot, itchy and plain ill-fitting. I used a Kelsey Smith Lightroom Preset here and then reduced the clarity to give it a darker grainier look. It amuses me, mileage may vary :-)

The Bins Have Eyes

Wed, 25 Aug 2010 22:02 +0100

Inspired by "The Hills Have Eyes" on Monday night (actually, freaked out by it) I thought I'd try my own suburban take on it. Next time you go to recycle, ask yourself, "Is anyone there?" - LOL (236/365)

Joker

Mon, 23 Aug 2010 22:56 +0100

Top tip, if ever you want to paint your face white, buy white face paint, sudocream is not good. Seriously, I'm stinging. Anyway, thought I'd continue the freakfest for one more night as I'm having way too much fun. Dlite to camera right above 45 degrees down. Makeup is an affront to all makeup artists out there, I know, but feic it, I lmao doing this and it was really hard to strike a pose. (235/365)

Very Bad Things

Sun, 22 Aug 2010 22:25 +0100

Dead dog tired. Fit to be tied (and buried). Long drive back from Kilkee. Tried to make this murky with 'reverse clarity' :-)

Fear

Sat, 21 Aug 2010 23:19 +0100

It's dark in Kilkee, very dark. If it wasn't for the strobe I'd have disappeared down a hole and would have floated off into the Atlantic. Freaky! And yes, I'm exaggerating, but it's still freaky!

Malevolence

Fri, 20 Aug 2010 23:05 +0100

Murderous intent, violence and subsequent death. And Heinz, I mean you really do need the Heinz and preferably Heinz 57. C'mon, even a psychopath has standards! LOL (232/365)

They're baaaaack!

Thu, 19 Aug 2010 22:03 +0100

I suppose it's only fitting to follow a near death experience with a poltergeist shot. "They're baaaaack!" scared the bejaysus out of me as a kid and I've wanted to try to capture it for a while. Although Evan isn't the little girl from the movie, he has the look and I'm happy with the effect. Ooooooooohhhhhhh!
