Junkies pain ~ portraits of a junkie

the first image.. shot using a flash to capture the moist and greasy skin... the second image without.. to capture the reflection in the eyes.. of objects lightened up by sunlight...

its amazing what a difference a flash makes.... the first looks like something out of resident evil, and the second looks like he just needs a bath...

Woah, they almost look like 2 different people. What's the story behind these pics?

In case anyone passed them by, do spend some time checking out the eyes. They really are incredible, although different, in both images.

the first one is great- definitely gives a strong impression of the toll drugs have taken on this guy.

I see a lot of people like this guy in some of the places I travel through and I just think 'what have you been through to end up looking that weatherbeaten?'

i simply can't look at it more then a couple seconds...

[Pandora's Eyes]

jesus. that's kind of creepy. it's almost grotesque, yet beautiful. ...maybe not beautiful, maybe just mesmerizing. you were brave in choosing this man as the subject.

where did you find this guy?
