The Dayglo Abortions

Dayglo Abortions — Photograph Alex Waterhouse-Hayward

I thought about these guys as our cat, Casi-Casi is still radioactive. He was injected with Iodine 131 a week ago. We have been told that his radioactivity right now is equivalent to what you get in a one way flight from Vancouver (where we live) to Hawaii.

For the above shot my makeup artist tried different combinations under the big black light filter that I used to cover a 1000 Watt Second flash unit. Surprisingly (at the time years ago) the Polaroid did not manifest much glow. But the Ektachrome did!
