'Aura'
Jon was very patient with me during this indoor 'studio' photoshoot. As usual it was done with low budget equipment. This photo was a long exposure (as long as my Canon Powershot would allow) while I moved a torch around Jon to illuminate him during the exposure.

'Flandrinian'
A sort of homage to Hippolyte Flandrin's famous painting, with a different head angle to create the backdrop shadow.

'Halo portrait'
Another experiment of moving a torch around the model during a longer exposure in the dark. This is all guesswork of course and you don't know what you've got until after the shot. Its a bit like returning to the old days of developing film. If anything it would have been nice to have spent a little longer illuminating the face to get a bit more detail to show up here.

'Lean Back'
I love the subtle cross lighting on this shot sothat the contours of the back are beautifully shown up.

'Maened Soul'
Cheers to you too Jon. Models have to have some perks for posing for me at no cost! Again I like the shadow on the backdrop on this one.

'Mind Wander'
A compact model shape and a nice thoughtful gaze. A return to my usual black backdrop shots to give a ciarscuro effect

'Restless Soul'
A longer exposure again in limited light, while geting the model to move about considerably and not stay in one place for too long during the exposure.

'Soul Ascends'
More moving a torch around the model during a longer exposure, this time trying to point the torch light away from the lens to just get the reflected light from the model onto the final image rather than too much of a light trail.

'This is me'
Just an intimate and candid portrait of Jon.

'Thoughtful'
Jon and his shadow having a think.

'Trance'
A successful long exposure without any light trail from the torch moving around the model. The light coming from different angles during the exposure time leads to a soft otherworldy look to the result.
