Beautifully captured! Regards.

Alberto and Anabela - thanks :)

Hi Dale! Great shot there! Just been looking over your photo's. You have taken some awsome stuff while I have been gone. Heard the concert was great and for

an old guy now, he's still in great shape lol.

Hey Andrea, thanks a lot - glad you're back on PN .... yeah this summer (whole year in fact) I just been shooting non-stop after being house bound during our lousy snow season. Rick was great - he was one of the ones I wanted to see for sure this year and yeah, I didn't realize it at the time but later I was thinking that's he's gotta be up there in age cuz I'm up there in age now LoL ... I'll post a couple more of him later.

Hello again Dale, this is one superb rock image, neatly composed and framed and includes great lighting and a great capture of pose, character and expression. Didn't know Rick was still rocking, I remember he had a hit way back in circa 1984, when I was just 14. Still looks in great shape too. Well done Dale.

 

Regards

Tony, thanks a lot man ..... yeah I remember his Jesse's Girl and my fave I've Done Everything For You very well and I knew he was still playing but never got a chance to see him till now (I just missed watching him as Dr. Noah Drake on General Hospital as well around my college years) ... but yeah, he was great, interacting with the fans and even at one point jumping in among the fans.

Really nice job, Dale. Were you hired to take these images? You are very close, and the band should be appreciative if they have access to these images. David

Thanks David for the compliment .... no I was just part of the audience and shooting through heads and flaying arms - I was able to snag a few cleaner shots or crop some but was challenging to be sure. I did see his website, there's a lot of high quality concert images there, I don't think they need my stuff ;-)

 

I only shot for one band during this 17 fair day otherwise I was just part of the audience - typically with 3 rows of people in front of me even though I went over an hour early LoL

Wow! I know how hard stage shots can be! Really good technique and timing!

Thanks Joseph. With some fast lenses, it makes things easier but yes, after all these years it's still challenging shooting concerts.

Dale, this a great shot.I have been doing a lot of band photography in low light. I know how hard it is to catch a guitarist/performer this clear, especially hands and guitar neck. Awesome image.

Thanks a lot Mark!
