that is the wierdest perspective on college parties I have ever seen. maybe I'm used to seeing them through alcohol goggles, but whoa.

Yeah, maybe i just don't know how to appreciate it, but being a college kid myself, that style seems to suck the life right out of the college party. IMO.

those are kind of creepy...especially the shots where you see the hard shadow behind the subject from the direct flash.

Smoke shots are cool...even the Advair in the suitcase ;)! The party photos are just weird/misplaced, like something out of a horror movie.

Party shots are meh. You can't really tell they are at a party. I can see isolating the subject, but it's taken way too far.
Now the smoke, that is cool.

Can you explain how you did that effect? I saw your picture of your setup, but I am not sure what I am looking at.

for the party pic, what kind of flash you use? how come there is a "circle of light" in the center and everything beyond it is pitch black?
