Music Rockers (1)
A few Composites and Images of several of my favorite Rock Artists, as you can see, many are from the 80's.
Several of these photographs as noted were published in Rolling Stone magazine.
On a personal note, of all the types of photography ever invented, I would claim that Live Concert Photography is up there among the most difficult ones. You have thousands of Fans behind you, and there is a Band and main Singer in front of you. Nobody stands still. In fact, even the notion of standing still ruins the idea of a good concert photograph. The Bouncers and Security guys hate you, because you are in their way. The Crowd is jealous of you. The Band thinks you’re annoying. The lighting is never bright enough, and changes so frequently that you’re screwed even in the few moments that it is. Promoters say you can only shoot the first three songs.....
And nonetheless, Concert Photography is one of my all-time favorite shooting experiences. It’s hard, but rewarding..... and...deeply gratifying on a personal level. It’s about Capturing the mood, Capturing the action, Capturing the expressions. Capturing something the audience is feeling. I LOVE IT...
When ordering Prints, the Watermark will not show.
Thank you for viewing and look forward to your comments.
