This was a photo booth type thing done by Howard Schatz at the Eddie Adam Workshop. I of course am not in it, I was out being offered oral sex by my subject. No joke. Despite not being in this, I actually really like this piece. Hmmm, somehow that sounded crazy conceded. I actually like many people hate 90% of the pictures taken of me, so I probably like this MORE because I am not in it.
Howard does some really amazing underwater stuff. Makes me want an underwater camera bad! The work is very elegant with more than a dose of trippyness to it. If trippyness isn't a word I now deem it one. He also is a regular contributor to Vanity Fair. He usually shoots an actor and gives them a few different things to act out. Here's an example:
Left:You're an eight-year-old boy whose friend convinced you to shoplift the latestGrand Theft Auto.Now you're sitting in the security office at the mall, waiting for your father to arrive.
Center: You've just excused yourself from the table at a dinner party where you've been placed between the two most boring people on the planet, and you're in the bathroom, wondering how you'll survive two more hours.
Right: You're the idealistic young teacher of an out-of-control fourth-grade class, exploding after 20 minutes of complete chaos.
Anyway, yet another awesome product of going to Eddie Adams Workshop, go check it out Ladies and Gentleman, Boys and Girls!
