A frontal face held in grey mist, the hair dissolving at its edges into a halo of other haircuts, the eyes not quite matching. Ziggy, the Thin White Duke, Aladdin Sane, Major Tom, Halloween Jack, Blackstar: none of them is centred, and all of them are here. Three hundred and ten photographs averaged at equal 1/310 weight, no source dominating the others.
