Jesse Dracman is the singer of Gold Coast based shock rockers, Candypain. He and his lovely partner Lolly visited the nightclubI frequent and were nice enough to pose for some pics.

Minimal post work - no noise reduction bothered with yet.

dammit, havent even gone to bed and I'm feeling hungover already.

These are strong and very stylistic images. I like your treatment of the background. I would love to see them printed and framed. Good stuff.

Mark,

No one is excellent. Love the stare and the facial expression.

Alex

Nice shots mate, love the first one!!!

dan

While the first of these is good, I love the second. The background lighting offsets the subject in an almost mystical way.

Well done.

Mark

#2 is the goods for me. The subject and the use of the lights in the background make for a very strong image.

thanks guys!

Mark, good pics but i can also add mate you hang with some freaky people.LOL Make interesting subjects anyhow.

I hang with freaky people? haha I AM one of those freaky people!

Actually I have been getting away with going to the office gothed up for the last few years and it's been entertaining.
Should have seen the look I got from Lachlan Murdoch last time he saw me striding the halls of the paper as he visted. His tattoos seemed absolutely highbrow in comparison to the Rob Zombie shirt, boots buckled to my knees and studded belt. hehe

The freaky aspect is mostly skin deep. A lot of my freaky looking friends are in full time professional jobs, astrophysicists, lawyers, ect and then you get a lot of students and artists as well. It's one of the safest places to go and get pissy in all of Brisbane.
