As morbid as this shot my seem, it's very well orchestrated. I remember an article I read in Photo magazine back in 05. There was a funeral home in New York city that specialize in propping the body of the deceased up with next of kins permission to fully cloth and place the body in an action pose as if walking. It was a sight to behold even in a magazine. I'm talking about hats, suits, shoes, and dresses, tennis shoes, and athletic walking suits. One woman was dressed in a cotton pink laced dress with a small matching hat and vail with 4" sling back white heels to match. The photographer would set up a back drop of a solid color of red or blue maybe. The shots were taken with a 4x5 land camera and were absolutely stunning. They are referred to as travelers. They really appeared to be going somewhere; I kid you not. when I say these shot look morbid, "they look morbid". But, these shot were very well taken. that's what this sot reminds me of. Congrats on you Feature. You earned it. Great shot.
