Another great shot.
Have you ever seen the film The Tales of Hoffmann? It is a British Technicolor film from 1951. The film is an opera by Jacques Offenbach from 1881. Baz Luhrman studied the film's makeup, costumes and sets when he made Moulin Rouge. Tim Burton is heavily influenced by it. And when Martin Scorcese saw this film and it companion piece The Red Shoes (1948), he decided to abandon becoming a priest and take study film. He still regards these two films as the greatest. I am surprised that the film is not seen more often as it is a classic and it is so gothic, especially in the second act. Your makeup reminds me of the ballet marionettes in the first act. There. I can't praise your picture more highly.

This is a really neat deviation. I'm surprised more people haven't commented on it. I like that you left the eyes out of the shot; it leaves more to the imagination.

Nice shot!
