Dragon vs. Man

Back in college, when I was taking fine art photography, this was one of my best black and white photos. I’ve been saving it since almost 2001 in a manila folder inside my file cabinet. Probably because it is an ex-boyfriend of mine, probably because I’ll never really frame it because it’s an image of a half naked guy and I’m sure Bobby wouldn’t appreciate that in our living room, or anywhere else. But it IS still one of my favorite photos – probably because of the angle, the composition, and the tonal values. So I figured I would scan it in and save it here…so other people can say what they think of it.

I’m calling it Dragon vs. Man because it’s kind of ironic considering the person in the photo switched places with the dragon on many occasions (breathing fire, having scaly skin and sharp claws.) BUT…we all have our other sides…I have mine too, so I can’t judge I guess.

Even though there are good + bad memories there, everything in life is a lesson learned and a way to grow into what we are today, so I say……no regrets.
