Some good shots Frank.

I think the softness(if thats what we're calling it now.:-))looks good on them.

On Saturday night I headed out to see my buddy Tim the jazz trumpeter.
I last took pix of him with this band about a year ago, so some of
the faces may be a bit familiar to some of you.  I mostly alternated
between three lenses:  Tamron f2.5 90mm, Pentax f2.5 135mm and Vivitar
Series 1 f2.8 constant aperture 35-85 zoom - all manual focus, but it
was so dark in there autofocus was useless anyway.  Oh yeah, the shot
of the whole band was with my Zenitar f2.8 16mm fisheye (semi-fisheye
on the *istD).  All shots handheld at between 1/15th and 1/20th, hence
the softness to many of them.

I was concentrating on tight shots, because I need some of this band:

Please excuse the poor arrangement;  Blogspot is such a pain to
organize multiple photos.

And yes, they did do My Funny Valentine...

;-)

Comments welcome.

cheers,
frank
