he was at his peak before i was born but i still know he's a legend
never really shot music before this is my first big music gig excluding the arias
Lou Reed performed as part of Sydney Festival

You did quite well. But maybe a little tighter shots might work even better.

Or maybe even when they're performing and "into it".

thanks grev

it was an ambient song and i only got to shoot 1 song, i had to stay at the back so at 200mm thats as close i got
he pretty much wasn't doing much, his backup and choir did the rest
it was actually quite surreal just seeing him stand there with such presence without doing much

but i know exactly what you mean

Well presence is alot with performing artists, especially when it's someone like that. :)

But yes, did as much as you could, so it's a fine job.

Great pics of an artist that was my hero along with Pink Floyd and the Moody Blues :)

Wendell - I too think the WB is ok, suits the environment I reckon :)
Top work as usual buddy.
