I decided to go a different direction than I think most will go on this theme. The word addiction brings up many memories for me of a time when I fell into the grasp. My story is no different from the many, many others from the 80's but I was lucky to have a father and sister who picked me up and brushed me off. I am forever thankful.

Gridded SB900 at 1/32 pwr on the mirror
Snooted MiniBeauty Dish on an SB800 on my face @ 1/32 pwr
Snooted SB600 on the ground hitting my leg @ 1/64 pwr. I got in the way of this flash, as it was designed to hit the wall behind me to add a bit more depth.

Thanks for sharing a bit of your own story in relation to this image. You're still alive and I hope living is your new drug of choice. Great job on the emotion of the image with the shadows and limited lighting.
Hmmm... I'm wondering how this shot is doing. It could be pushing the line, (no pun intended).
I like the shot. Lovely detail... nice black and white conversion... the message can be interpreted in different ways.
