Like father like son?
Great expression, pity bout the mic covering his face. The image is a bit monotone(flat?) for my liking too, I mean that he could be lifted from the background a bit more with a shallower depth of field, or a more focused flash beam. Maybe its something that could be done in PS.
As a musician I would be happy to have a shot like this presented to me (if I was a musician)
SeanHi Sean,
I greatly appreciate you stopping by & taking the time to reply.Your comments are well made.
I have taken some photographs of gigs before (mostly film up ’til now)
& normally use available light. The subjects have normally been fairly famous people
so the pics were valuable to me as a record of the event.
I must admit I never really thought about the technicalities
of the process. I was at a concert & took a few shots.This was one of Jonathans first gigs (a singer/songwriter club in Wexford).
He asked me along accompany him on one of his songs.
There was no stage lighting or backdrop of any sort.
When he started up I snapped a few shots for the record.
It was so dark I had to use flash.Not great but a record of a nice moment in our lives.
BTW: We have ambitions to do some better stuff & I’ll make
sure to be more attentive to the technicalities.We’ll see what happens.
Thanks again.
John.
Just for the record heres one of my efforts from many years ago.
Scanned from a 6×4 that was’nt stored in the best condition.
