Location
Nelle Colt plays lead guitar for the American band Vintage Trouble. They performed at the Ritz Manchester.Time
It was an event g performance after Slydigs had performedLighting
This CES a rare moment when the coloured lights dropped leaving Natte under a white light with an unlit black background.Equipment
The photo was taken with my Nikon 750. As is the norm at gigs no flash allowed.Inspiration
I often shoot performers and enjoy the challenge of fast moving subjects in difficult lighting. I liked this shot due to the simplicity. One man focused on his performance.Editing
I do very little editing as it does not excite me and I'm not that good at it!In my camera bag
Nikon 750, 3 lenses, ear plugs, cleaning cloth, torch, note book with pens. I like to keep it light and small for gigs.Feedback
Try to work out best side to shoot from to avoid stage clutter like microphones, speakers bottles ect. Work with the stage lights. Respect other photographers, performers and crowd.
