Looking into his eyes makes you wonder what kind of inner pain he must have to drive him to mutilate his face like this. Some of the piercings look infected. This IS a very haunting photo, but not just for Halloween.

Beyond the piercings, the eyes are telling us so much. Great photo and subject that makes you think outside the box.

That's a looooot of piercings (Way to state the obvious, huh?. A lot of those look infected too...It's amazing that people deal with that pain so they can look the way they've invisioned

In my head I look at this guy and I hear the son from the Wizard of Oz...."if I only had a brain..." I don't think I could look at him long enough to snap it...wow, where did you find that guy?

Wow Jimmy where did you find this guy? It's a great shot, but it makes me cringe. First thing I thought was how does the guy lie down to sleep?

OUCH!! I guess that's never going to go away. An earring hole will eventually close up. I don't see that being the case here. But... great photo. And bravo to you for being brave enough to approach him. :)

Thank you for the comments. I found him in La Habana Cuba, he was not too happy when I asked him if I could take the photo but at least he agreed :)

Great subject, why would anyone do this to himself? Lots of pent up emotions, I suppose, to make a statement like this. But the shot is great, I am glad you took it. My hands would not have been steady long enough to get a clear picture.

Just immagine washing his face! - Poor guy, what kind of punishment!
By the way: do you think he's able to shave himself?

Nice shot, my question is why would he do that, he must have a line through is field of vision all the time, thank goodness we live in a world were we are all different!

Ouch! And I'm good with 7 hour ink sessions!
Suddenly my 70% inked body seems passe!
I'd have to lop off a few limbs to reach those heights of sensation. Extraordinary!

Great photo, certainly an composition. Like most people here it really begs the WHY! I bet this makes sleeping difficult.
Enjoyed your gallery, keep up the great work.

Interesting capture! I'm sure tissues, wool knitted pull-over sweaters and airport screening personal are a challenging ordeal for this gentleman ;-)

The tricky part for the model, obviously, is how to shave... I imagine he needs to use tweezers. Excellent framing of this grotesque.

This is not normal to me, but who am I to judge? The thing that concerns me is the infection he does seem to have because of the piercings. I wonder if anyone has ever tried to humanely understand him. It might take just one caring person to help him with his self esteem, and also guide him to a doctor.

Oh wow, unbelievable photo, but raises many questions about the subject; How does he shave, how does he blow his nose, can he see properly, his hearing ability must be impaired,....even if it is digitally enhanced;Brilliant!

Incredible Portrait. I'm all for a person expressing their individuality but I think some take it too far. But I say if you're happy do your thing!

Wow, great shot , wonder how he sees properly , looks like a human stand for jewelry , looks like he’s more in pain inside then out if that’s possible

Wow!! I bet he works as jewelry display! Lol
Great picture, but I don’t know why anyone would do that either.

MATE! This is simply Brilliant, like Nat Geo Cover Material!!!!! send it to them.
I am thinking lower saturation and play a bit with the shadows, contrast, highlights to bring out the eyes Maybe B&W

I saw this photo online somewhere with a caption that had something to do with taking a face plant into a tackle box.

I don't know. How does he eat? Smile? or Make Love? Me I just don't want to stand out at that cost. Good shot but could use some manipulation.

I can't stop looking at this guy. To me, he looks as though he's suffered a lot in his life but what really gets me is, I feel I need take this guy fishing next time I go. His face is a tackle box.
