these go to eleven

these go to eleven
2008-02-20

The people whose gigs I shoot never fully appreciate the fact that sometimes, shooting musicians can get a little boring. So when I need a bit or a photography reboot during a session, I start photographing still-lifes.

They usually breeze past them looking for the next photo of their guitar-ripping solo, but these are mostly for me.

    If shooting musicians gets boring, trade your camera for a tazer, a BB gun, or an assault rifle. With the right mix of ordnance, it quickly gets hilarious. ^_^

    Or you can keep shooting your great pictures, of course, that's cool too!

    You must be my biggest fan. :)

    Well, if I am, it's both a pleasure and an honor, m'Lady.

    A gig is much, much more than gitar-ripping solo's. It's the public, the band, the crew, the equipment that is used, the atmosphere of the live act ... and sometimes (not very often) a gitar solo.
    Please keep shooting pictures like this.

    Did you hear about the eternal vacancy ?? A solo gitarist with a small ego.

    I love this. Granted getting that key shot of the energy in the show is great but when you stop and look around at these still life pictures I think they say just as much.

    The guitar amp never looked so interesting.

    And if it's not a guitar amp, I just really embarrassed myself.
