The Kingsize Five cont'd...

Continuing with the pile, this is the last shot I got of the band.

Singers

I wanted to capture some of the exuberance and energy they displayed on stage and hopefully that's what I managed. The blurry hands of the girls work well for this, but the bloke was moving right-to-left just too quickly to freeze his features.

Maybe next time I'll remember to set the drive mode to continuous shooting to stand more of a chance in getting the shot that works best.

Going through a bunch of unprocessed photos

I've been going through the pile of unprocessed photos in my digital darkroom. You know, the pile that builds up of the ones that haven't yet inspired you — while more recent ones have and have been dealt with.

Always a danger when you're doing this, though, that your "that's worthy" filter gets fooled — and I think mine has here! ;)

What do you think? More worthy for the recycle bin or...

Barbican Jazz and Blues Festival

This one came from a brief shoot at the Barbican International Jazz and Blues Festival and shows (some of!) the Kingsize Five brass section.

This was the closing session and marked the end of a great ten days of jazz and blues music from all round the world.
