Rocklahoma 2008 Festival Coverage

Rocklahoma 2008 Festival coverage is underway. The shoot was challenging with constantly changing weather conditions (rain, clouds, dark clouds, normal dawn to dusk sun movement, a very crowded photo pit, active and still artists, and set to set lighting changes. The D300 performed admirably under these conditions and never broke a sweat though the photog stayed pretty anxious shooting for the first time in all manual. Day 5 Featured the best lineup for me personally of the 5 day festival and i… Continue

A Lower Deep

Another local favorite, A Lower Deep has been a challenging subject over the last year or so: a mesmerizing live performance yet difficult to capture in still images. Finally, I believe I nailed it. Let me know what you think. Continue

Eclipsed by Sanity

Along with Halcyon Way, Eclipsed by Sanity is one of my favorite local subjects. EBS are young, hungry, and eager to pay their dues at full sticker price; they have no interest in unearned hype or praise. Add a touch of Spinal Tap drama -- singer's departure and return, guitarist health scare -- all at the ripe young… Continue

ProgPower USA VIII

ProgPower USA VIII in Atlanta rocked, as usual. This was my first ProgPower shoot with Canon gear and primes instead of zooms. Pretty happy with the results, but next year I'll definitely carry two bodies like the pros - changing lenses in the pit was tricky (and slow.) Still working on the pictures, but the day job (and night, late… Continue
