Young Zen = Young Zhen

 

This picture is from a very bizarre photoshoot. Neither I nor the film lab I've used for a dozen years has encountered anything like it.

When I unearth (from storage) the negatives and prints from this shoot, I will post them on this website.

What makes them bizarre is the light that circles my body in almost every shot. Unlike most light leaks in a camera or during developing, these light rays seem to eminate from my body and weapons.

I set this shoot up myself using professional lighting and the neutral backdrop in my home/office/studio.

I try not to get into the hocus pocus of Qi and energetic healing, too much, but this photoshoot gives a unique portrayal of Qi energy (or maybe ghosts) without any special effects.

This photoshoot was at Tai Mantis in 1982. The photographer was Shifu Rick Bash.

That's another thing I loved about Tai Mantis. There were other artists and creative people there.

Rick set up the back drop and shot a bunch of us students who paid a small fee.
