  I like the dynamic angle you’ve taken the shot with.
  Some blown highlights but it kind off adds to the feel of the photograph.

  Must say I like it, not sure why, but it has appeal

  I like the all photo. The angle and light give special atmosphere.

  Thanks fer that all.

  Ed, yeah, I think sparingly used (intentional) blown highlights and deeply creepy shadows have their place when trying to get across a mood/atmosphere – it’s been done very effectively with cinematography for donkey’s years (anywhere from Bladerunner to Amelie, and etc) but tends to get sneered at in the world of stills. Ah well.

  He’s actually watching Barney (TV is high up on a wall mount) about 30secs after getting needled for blood, might explain his expression a bit.
  I’m just glad he’s back home again is all. ;)
