Steve Landis shot this portrait of Graham Parker, against one of the dressing room doorways, backstage at Upper Darby's The Tower Theatre.  Graham suggested using his passport as a prop and Steve used it to frame the singer's face, creating a collar shaped shadow, by using a light from slightly below.  The photo was taken with a Nikon FM camera with Kodak Tri-x black and white film.
