portrait of Kikuo Hayashi

Recently, I was asked to photograph a young man who's passion
was tropical fish. He had three aquariums in his room and the
art director wanted a picture of him with the aquarium. I wanted
to break away from the typical "person standing next to his aquarium" shot, and wanted to fill the frame with the exotic world under water.
On this shot I decided to shoot his reflection on the glass aquarium.
It looks like a double exposure and something from the past, but in
this case it solved the problem. I think we've seen every trick there
is to photography by now, and with today's digital photography there
are infinite possibilities. However, analogue methods from the past can actually be quite useful and provide a simple solution.
