"The "Red Death" had long devastated the country.
No pestilence had ever been so fatal, or so hideous. Blood was its Avatar and its seal--the redness and the horror of blood."

Wow, wow,wow! I keep on looking at that twisted tree and the tombstones and the bloody colors. Too darn creepy. This is a colorful but gory image, I think. It really fits the movie title. Is it just a single image or a multiple photoshop creation? I just had to search to see if the story behind this photograph is on the net. It is and what a creepy story. Another one on my "to rent" list.

Awesome compostion - gravestones and gnarled tree trunk work great together, and the red leaves complete the tie to the movie title. Well shot! -Ed Hahn

Allen – Really liked the shot. First impression was too much red (but then maybe that was your point as per the title)? Maybe I’ll come back later and change my mind. Like the composition though.
