Portrait of an artist at midnight

A photographer during a night session. His concentration, the dim light and the entire atmosphere of the scene made me take this shot.

The following are my own thoughts on the photograph:

Your eye scans the scene and tries to ascertain if light has bitten the proper amount of chunks from the darkness, so it would make a worthy image out of both. An almost sensual dance, a continuous struggle for the balance, in the elusive perfection-seeking juxtaposition on the canvas before you. And when this happens, well, you get a glimpse of beyond, for the briefest of time. The time stops, the moment happens. And then it’s time again.
