[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]This past Saturday I shot some stills while two bands ("Potty Mouth" and "Chemical Peel") played sets at the radio station for air later (as it happens, in a few hours: 3AM US/Eastern Wednesday the 8th of August, which will seem more like late tonight to most of us) at http://wfmu.org/ One interesting thing is that the two bands are nominally based in Northampton, MA and Columbia, SC... but they're touring together, and share the drummer. The drummer is pretty remarkable. She played both sets, which included the fast drumming you'd expect from the genre, and didn't seem at all fazed. She was quick and crisp and exhibited great efficiency of motion. Anyway, I thought the photos came out pretty well. There's even some Leica content. Basically, I just used three primes I like the look from (the 35mm Summilix-M ASPH, the Canon 85mm f/1.2 L, and the Olympus 12mm f/2) with whatever camera body seemed appropriate stuck on the back of each. Here's the whole set: http://www.flickr.com/photos/jbm0/sets/72157630920898868/ If you don't feel like paging through the whole batch, here are a few I particularly like: http://www.flickr.com/photos/jbm0/7720873068/in/set-72157630920898868/lightbox/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/jbm0/7720919228/in/set-72157630920898868/lightbox/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/jbm0/7720884102/in/set-72157630920898868/lightbox/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/jbm0/7720896026/in/set-72157630920898868/lightbox/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/jbm0/7720936270/in/set-72157630920898868/lightbox/ http://www.flickr.com/photos/jbm0/7720954254/in/set-72157630920898868/lightbox/
