Miscellaneous Pictures

hey, been checking the thread for a while, and yeah, nice to not hear any hate. A thread that works. Fuck me.
Anyway, been shootin whole lotta digital this year - mostly bands and festivals for magazines and Inpress.
But first up, a close up of this critter.
shot 1:1
Nikon F90x, w. 60mm micro AF nikkor lens
ambient & off camera sync Speedlight
Velvia ( i think).
any feedback would be cool.

whoa, let me resize
sorry to fuck up.

fucked it... let me resize

digital portrait. that took me 17 hours from start to finish... it was due the next day
Camera: D100

eh, resolution not so good in last pic. Looks better as a 12x16 inch print.
a few more...
the band Mindsnare... crazy old school thrash.

Next few, NYE at Pyramid Rock Festival in Phillip Island.
Very boozy night, that involved a few narcotic stimulants.
With an all access media pass, this was photographed from on stage.
First up... the local breakers onstage at 11.30ish..

As the clock strikes twelve...

Festival chicks. Not supermodel quality, but drunk enough to have fun with...

ok, next couple from Bluesfest in Byron Bay, 05.
i had the pleasure of photographing with a journalist mate for a Blues mag called Rhythms.
This is George Clinton, the man, getting hiiiiiiiiiigh. on stage at the start of a 3.1/2 hour funk marathon on the last night.

We randomly met this guy walking backstage, who then invited us into the dressing room of the Funkadelic.
At the time, i was really high, so it seemed like a normal and polite thing to do
'My name used to be Peanut, but I changed it to Blues.'
This is Blues.

REM at Bluesfest.
shot with 80-200 AF 2.8 Nikkor
The long lens was my saviour - not sure of focal length on D100. maybe 210-230mm.

met this crazy drunk REM fan who had written on his arm in thick, fat texta.
'BRUCE IS NOT AFRAID'.
I dont have a photo of Bruce - we were too busy arguing with him that REM are not the greatest band in the world.
here's another REM shot. Probably the better of the two...

Last few tonight from Bluesfest
This is Bo Diddley - one of the great blues legends.
The dude is in his 70's, and still rocked the fuck out.
Yeah.

Sorry for the vertical frame!
Bo Diddley and his custom guitar.

Not sure if it was something I smoked, something I drank or something I consumed, but yeah, I will admit that this photograph was a complete accident that worked for me.
last one is...
Teenage Boy wearing Bob Marley tshirt at Bluuuesfest.
