Bloody hell, it was raining cats and dogs just before the concert started…. it slowed down a bit after a few minutes, but I had a problem with my autofocus at one point, which I think was because of the water. But ….. it was totally worth getting drenched. Joss Stone is amazing in every possible way, she’s got a voice that I can’t really describe in words, and a presence on stage that is getting to you, wether you like the music or not. Don’t miss her show should she be performing in your area.
On a technical note: Well it was open air, so there was not too much trouble with the light on this one. The challenge was the rain tonight. It was really raining a lot, so much that my viewfinder was fogging up. I literally shot a lot of this pictures blind, aiming over the camera and hoping for the focus to have been on the spot. It’s a good idea to bring plastic bags at open air shows. Thanks Steve …. 🙂
I’ve used the 24-70 F2.8 and the 70-200 F2.8 for this gig.
