Look Alike, Look Alive, or just Look Dead

Mandy Patinkin always reminds me of Gene Kelly.

Then again, it might just be the hat that I'm thinking of.

But, sometimes a costume is just a costume.

Is it wrong of me to now want to see a tap-dancing, scythe-wielding Grim Reaper?

Even better, Jasmine Guy as the tap-dancing Death. After all, her uniform for the show Dead Like Me was pretty awesome as well.

Oh yeah, she could be a stylish tap dancer.

Daguerreotype

Because the usual exposure for this old art form takes around a couple of minutes, Mr. Close used six flash strobes to make the exposure almost instantaneous. According to him, "Your eyes slam shut so fast, it feels like somebody stuck an ice pick into the middle of your eye. If we don't have the shields, you can smell your hair and your face burning."

The last images are NSFW, but artistically done.
