Brilliant idea! Now I won't have to make a costume to scare the 
neighborhood kids. Thanks for the tip  : )


>Great pic by the way...what type of camera do you use?  Digital?

Thank you for the kind words. I work with both digital and 35 mm film 
cameras, but my current machine of choice is the excellent Nikon 880 
digital, which was used to take this shot. The image was then (very 
slightly) edited in Photoshop.

The 880 is, unfortunately, no longer in production. Nikon's current 
comparable (or superior?) cameras are the 995 and the 5000. I have 
worked with the 995 and achieved good results, but it is considerably 
larger and heavier than the 880. I have not yet had an opportunity to 
try out the 5000, but it looks most impressive.
