I’d like to say this is exactly how I found Batman but I’m sure you would not believe that! It is, of course a composite but Batman and I did spend some time together in a studio where he was actually playing a piano at the time. But I had this shot of this photo booth and thought it might be amusing to see what he looked like in there. I also adapted the photos on the side of the box to suggest that this was where all comic characters or superheroes went to get their ID photos updated. Which of course is entirely plausible! Mono seems to work well for it and perhaps adds to Batman’s brooding menacing stare.

An interesting image which tells a story. I especially like the expression and side gaze of Batman!   Posted: 02/01/2025 17:28:27

Cool! Do you remember the scene in The Incredibles when they are advised against capes?   Posted: 02/03/2025 02:22:52

Hi Stephen - thanks for the comment. No,I didn't know that quote from the incredibles but as you can see Batman has been Health and Safety aware by making sure his cape doesn't get snagged in the photo booth!   Posted: 02/03/2025 09:03:18
