Lead-singer of 'The Simones'; Ikebukuro, Tokyo

Shot a series of pics at a gig the other week, where I was helping one of my students get to grips with shooting live music.

Great gig, great band. Nice pub… although a little small. But that’s Tokyo!

Write-up on the event here and a bunch of tips on shooting gigs:

Nikon D300
Nikkor 85mm f/1.4 AF-D @ f/1.4
1600ISO
Straight to mono in-camera
Little bit of toning in Photoshop
