This image was taken at the 1975's Still at their very best tour at the AO Arena in Manchester. It features the lead singer, Matty Healy lying across a roof built onto the stage, during a rendition of 'All I want to hear.' My intention to capture this image stemmed from the link between the lyrics and Healy's pose, a song about anxiety and isolation within a relationship. With his posing on the stage, it seemed as though he was silently falling into these feelings and becoming consumed by the thought of detachment. This was taken with an iPhone 12 Pro Max with the native camera, with a small amount of post production taking place in tweaking the brightness of the image.
