Dick Knight - Brighton & Hove Albion Football Club Chairman

 

So I took this portrait of the fascinating Dick Knight a while ago.

For those of you who don't know, amongst other things, Dick was responsible for saving Brighton & Hove Albion Football Club. His detemination and drive to get the Amex Stadium built should really be admired. I first met Dick over 10 years ago, when the stadium was just some plans on paper and an idea, and i'm very please do see it a thriving reality.

So for  this shot, i've lit him with the blue and white colours of The Albion and I got Dick to stare at an old picture of his parents and think about how they would feel in regards to all he has accomplished. I love that look in his eyes.
