Twilight Sad and Frightened Rabbit.



Last night I shot Twilight Sad and Frightened Rabbit to feature in The Skinny.

I was very impressed with Frightened Rabbit having never heard them before, there was a little bit of a mix up with a microphone for Twilight Sad which could have perhaps accounted for, what I felt, was a bit of a flat set. I had really been looking forward to shooting them as I am a fan of their music but I was left a little disappointed with them in a live venue.

Still, I got some nice shots from the evening which was satisfying. I took a slightly different tack than I normally do with gigs and shot with my 50mm lens - which resulted in some nice sharp shots without having to rely on a high ISO setting. It takes a bit of time to switch between lenses but is worth the extra effort to get some pin sharp images.

Today sees me helping out Fraser @ Squared Images - shooting Dan March for his show - "My Myspace Baby". Should be an interesting one.
