Photos from O'Brien Imaging's post

John Barron Before you make your own opinions about these photographs let me explain what they are about. This is my friend John Barron who was my tutor when I was studying photography. Over the last 6 months he’s been through a lot. John suffers with several debilitating illnesses and about 4 months ago he took a bad turn that has completely changed his life. He spent three months in hospital suffering with Delirium. Because of this he is now a changed man, but he is also a very stubborn man and won’t give up easily and when he gets an idea in his head, it sticks there until something happens. He is part of a Wellbeing group (Open Space) where I teach photography in Eyemouth and yesterday the task for the day was to photograph John. The reason I chose John as the subject was because over the last three months his beard has grown in this really bizarre way and he asked me to photograph him before he has it shaved off. John requested a “normal” pose and one where he was pulling an angry face. Obviously because of his illness he struggles with motivation but yesterday John was the happiest I have seen him since his problems began. He loved posing for the rest of the group and everyone was laughing and having a great time. If you see John around Eyemouth say hello to him. He spends a lot of time on his own but loves company. He has a very dry sense of humour, so be warned. Here are a couple of shots I took while the group was photographing him. There will be an exhibition of the groups work towards the end of the year.
