Here the shots from Slash’s performance in Paris Le Zenith. As last time I photographed him the show was memorable. This time around I was allowed backstage so I watched it from a different angle, and let me tell you, …. wow. The Zenith was sold out and the fans were going nuts, ….. security had a lof of work that evening.
And for those who wondered, Slash and his band are very nice people. I am honored to have been there that day.
As the last time, the challenge here is balancing dark and light parts of the frame. Due to Slash’s hat and hair, the face is always quite dark, and usually there’s a bright white spot aimed at his guitar. It’s a constant battle of having enough detail in the face and not blowing the guitar and hands out too much. I used the 1D & 5D with the 70-200 and 28-75 for this gig.
