OK, this is Iggy Pop.
Just kidding. This is someone known in San Francisco as Dan the Snake Man. He started the stage show at a once-a-week club called Bondage A-Go-Go. I was trying to do a series of portraits of people from San Francisco's "sex underground" (as if anyone having to do with sex in San Francisco can be underground) when they were at home, but since most of them didn't want anyone to know who they were outside of fetish getup, the project didn't get very far.
Anyway, Dan spends most of his free (non-Snake Man) time gardening, so that is how I photographed him.
