Jazz

22nd Red Bank Jazz & Blues Festival. We went there and I was looking for a contribution to the People group (doesn't exist any more). This one is the picture I like best. Taking it was a little bit embarrassing. There was no real crowd in front of the stage (one or two hundred listeners were there but they kept their distance preferring places in the shades – you can see some of this in the reflection of the musicians sunglasses) and then there was that “real” photographer with his dSLR and a very big lens choosing exactly the spot I wanted to have for my picture. Imagine me going up to the stage with my little Canon Powershot G9 to take my picture. I waited a bit but then I did it and this is the best out of a series of a dozen (actually the last picture I took). I hope you like it too.

 

I have new pics from the 23rd Red Bank Jazz & Blues Festival which you can find here.
