Photographer's Note
From the 11th annual Melbourne Zombie Shuffle, a month ago, just a year after I uploaded my first Zombie Bride. This one is rather more elegant and wisely came equipped with an umbrella to ward of the squalling rain which soaked the zombies and photographers.

Hi Andrew, I am horrified even it this zombie is a bit more elegant :). Funny festival and what a great time for photographers. Here we see the bride, what about the groom? Funny shot. What a pity it rained, or maybe it was even more interesting .

Hi Andrew
It's difficult to organise this kind of festival in this sort of weather. But I can see "blood" on the umbrella also, so it obviously became an integral part of the event... :-)
Great shot, superb timing and crop.
Best wishes
Kasia

Hello Andrew,
I wouldn't want to meet her on a dark night! Well framed portrait with perfectly rendered colours and detailing.

Hello Andrew,
I have to say, I find this quite horrific!
I know, I am squeamish and never watch horror films but this looks gruesome!
Now, that is a testament to the truth and authenticity of your photograph!
The face is perfectly placed with strong details and a wickedly focussed expression
The hand, grasping towards the viewers, adds to the sense of horror!
Have a good day,
Bev :-)

Hello Andrew,
I've been ill with a flu and told everyone I felt like a zombie, your picture puts everything in another perspective for me, I think I exaggerated:) I like very much this portrait for its unusual model and for the spontaneity and intrigue it expresses. Her expression and gesture definitely add a story, the red, white and grey tones are so moody and significant. I'm imprssed by the multiple natural frames that emphasize her intense glance. Congratulations and thank you!
All the best, have a great day,
Ourania

Hello Andrew
What a pretty lady. Maybe in need of a bath. Or is that a bloodbath she's just come from? Great framing, great impact.
Regards
Will

Hi Andrew. Somewhat menacing thanks to excellent placing of bloodied hand against dark background. Impeccable details- one can sense life flowing through the veins. Regards. Klaudio.
