John Dee Holeman putting out a fire.
Thanks for all the comments on yesterday's daily, even though I really goofed on the guitar info. I should have realized that wasn't John's new one in his hands, after all, I have photographed that same guitar many times. With that out of the way - I didn't pick up the camera today, with all the editing I had to do, so here's my favorite shot from Saturday's concert/birthday celebration, with a little touch of picnik thrown in for fun. The
original can be seen in the newly posted gallery.
I don't know if the stage lighting changed (dimmed) since my last shoot here on New Years, but for some reason the auto-focus was having a really hard time locking onto anything this time. I resorted to manual focus early on and paid the price dearly, with the largest percentage of out of focus shots I've ever experienced. I have a renewed respect for anyone who can shoot at f/2 in a very dimly lit room and still manage to accurately focus the old fashioned way on moving subjects. I'm ready for some outdoor events with good old sunshine to work with. :)
