I did try and tell this little beastie, ever so nicely, that if he turned around and faced upward, it would make a so much better portrait, but no...he wouldn't listen.

So if any of you get a twisted neck from looking at this, see the butterfly's (moth's ???) lawyer, not mine!

Would a whip , a chair and a gun enhance the subjects compliance ? Seriously a suitably quick agile assistant should provide fill flash .
