These people really get into Halloween. Their display gets more elaborate every year, and now, on Halloween night , people are invited in for the price of a can of food for the local soup kitchen. In the middle of a sunny October afternoon, it's not all that scarey, so I used Elements to move it into a spooky twilight with a few spirits rising up as the witching hour approaches. It really was a matter of trial and error, so I truly don't remember exactly how I got the result. I started with Blue Tint, and messed around with levels, brightness/contrast/ and hue/saturation. To draw the spirits, I used a sort of scattery brush at a low opacity.
