Interesting. BTW, it's Takeshi, not Takashi? The few japanese musicians that cross my radar seem to be very creative in their genre. Some years back I was listening to KFJC and they were playing a bunch of music from the Surfcoasters. I tend to find surf rock pleasant, but it's not something I go out of my way to listen to, but I was so impressed by them that when I've heard their music since, I've been able to immediately recognize it. > > But if you just want to look at some dramatic low-light rock&roll > shots of a glamorous girl guitarist without all the critical > armwaving, those would be: > > http://www.tbray.org/ongoing/When/201x/2011/10/13/-big/RUNE3153.jpg.html > http://www.tbray.org/ongoing/When/201x/2011/10/13/-big/RUNE3128.jpg.html > http://www.tbray.org/ongoing/When/201x/2011/10/13/-big/RUNE3103.jpg.html > http://www.tbray.org/ongoing/When/201x/2011/10/13/-big/RUNE3097.jpg.html Those are great performance shots. > > K-5, ISO 6400, Sigma 30mm F1.4, the hardware performed pretty well in > a challenging situation I think. -T I almost bought a Sigma 30/1.4 off of ebay, but it was damaged in shipping, and I haven't run across another for a good price since, at least not when I had money to buy one. It's definitely on my radar. > > -- > 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. -- Larry Colen [email protected] sent from i4est -- 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.
