I shot this at an old theatre in downtown Clearwater FL. One of the buildings in downtown not yet owned by the Scientologist. I took two separate shots. One with the girl in the skirt and one with the person sitting in the background. Put the shots together and B&W in photoshop. My sister and girlfiend were the models. I took about ten different poses for the girl and decided on the only one that didn't show her face. It seemed to fit the mood the best. I took the shot at night with street lights. I need alot more practice with shooting at night. It was rushed and a cop was scoping us out. Shot it in about 20 min. The story of the pic is a night at the theatre for the people that go there after it closes. The girl is a hooker that works that corner. The person in the background is homeless and sleeps there at night. They share the spot. Maybe there friends. Maybe the homeless guy or girl keeps an eye out for the hooker while she's working and she brings him(her) something to eat at night. I wanted to portray another side of life different from the ones that go to the theatre while it's open. A side that happens at the same place, but while the other side is sleeping. Am I sounding really cheesy here. Oh well, that was the motivation behind it, figured I share it.



Pretty kool shot...
