FIRE EXIT CCs Callums Cavern (109)
FIRE EXIT @ CC’s Callum Cavern, back Sneddon Paisley.
This gig was shot with and without a flash which meant having to use a really high ISO, more so since there wasn’t a front stage spot light. So this meant those at the front of stage where in shadow with their backs to the on stage lighting, resulting in high ISO noise.
Plus some photos where the flash never fired are dark and noisy, one or two are out off focus, though I messed around with them and added them anyway to this set.
All in all a great gig and place for bands to play where only photographers who like to shoot without a flash would like to see at least one spotlight. If anything the drummer was in the right spot with all the lights on him.
There’s one cool shot where the flash never fired and in the darkness you can see the drummer only because of the lights to his side.
Myself! I would place a rotating alternating colour gel spot light to one side of the stage that changes colour myself. It would lighten up the singers faces and add more light around the other musicians without the need of a huge lighting rig. If anything two spots on either side of the stage would be more than enough and much less cheaper.
Much more so than shelling out £1200 quid for a low F number lens to suck in some more light that’s for sure..
From a publican and punters point of view its perfect and an expense they needn’t have to endure to appease people taking photos with crazy low light demands ;)
