I liked the first, but thought it lacked something, and that was where the second one gained, but I found the smiles too sickly...and then you deliver this. I love the set, but the looks and subject positioning on this just are more or less what I was hoping for, when I'd seen the first too.
I can't work out if the framed pic shouldn't be behind you but that all adds to the surreal element.
Thanks Pete - or as I am won't to address people who do me favours with a 'diminutive' or knickname I'll call you Pedro .............rofl!!
By the way the 'sickly'smile you refer to is a message of love between her and and 'im - cheeky bugger 
Personally I thought the 'spectre' subject being behind the shot had two effects - 1/somewhat puts the spectre more into the 'netherworld'
- 2/ the photo is one of the 'spectre' in his youth in a classic role and so ties the two of them together - much as the main character is tied with her reflection ???
(I've said for many years now one of 'mans' greatest abilities, for better or worse (usually worse) is his/her ability to rationalise an event (often just so much BS)
and thanks all for you approval - if that's what it was.....
Can't stop smiling!

I really like the second version in this series. I was thinking selective toning and then here it is. I think it is just subtle enough without being over the top. Love the way the picture is sort of hanging over him. I am still not sure about the flowers though and whether something else might replace them?? not sure about what though..Jo
