One of my former private students is having an exhibition in Chicago if you can make it.

YOU'RE INVITED to our ART+VISION opening reception for photographer Satoki Nagata, Thursday, July 16th, from 5-8pm, at 1130 W. Madison Street, Chicago, Illinois. Light appetizers and refreshments will be served.
The 2015 Red Rose and Bon Vivant eyewear and sun wear collections will be on display throughout the evening.
Photographer Satoki Nagata, a practitioner of Zen Buddhism, has learned that our existence is composed of interconnected relationships. This notion inspired Satoki to use photography to reveal and establish such dynamics and connections.
While in Japan, Mr. Nagata attended graduate school where he gained Ph.D. degrees in Neuroscience. After moving to the U.S. in 1992, he started using a camera to capture the people and city of Chicago.
Photography is driven by vision and content. Satoki finds his subjects by following the currents and finding the social whirlpools of metropolitan Chicago.

[insert pithy phrase here]
I think I've seen some of this work before.
Does this photographer place remote flash units and position himself opposite the flash to get the dramatic backlighting? I remember reading about that and admiring the creativity, effort, risk, etc. that goes into his work. Typically he placed the remote flash unit and waited for a subject to pass in front of it, then made the exposure. Brilliant (pun intended) approach.

Yes that's the jist of it. There's a lot of patience involved and a lot of forward thinking as well...
