Excellent gallery, really good stuff. My favourite: <http://charles.robinsontwins.org/photos/2009/honeydogs_firstave/content/ IMGP8998_large.html> Good that you got on stage as well. Do you wear ear defenders or did you lose your hearing edge years ago" ;-) I wear swimming-style rubber bungs like these: <http://www.simplyswim.com/images/products/39896_1.jpg> when working on and around stages. It also means that i can literally stand in front of the speaker stack to get some good side views. This vicinity is usually clear of any sane beings to a radius of a few feet affording good shooting, and can hear the music through my lungs :-) I had one bad experience with shooting in an excessively loud situation many years ago and have carried the ear protection ever since. Lovely work. -- Cheers, Cotty ___/\__ || (O) | People, Places, Pastiche ||=====| http://www.cottysnaps.com _____________________________ -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
