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 ;)

Yes, it is a gloomy day in Los Angeles and, believe it or not, it might even rain...It's time to go inside!

The fire exit empties into an alley, onto a passage, and into a street. From the outside looking in, however, it appears a kind of architectural weir.

Fire Exit @ Audio Glasgow January 28th 2018
Pretty “Damned” Good Cake…
Paisley punk band Fire Exit along with The Media whores, Red Eyes, Threat, Shock and Awe and Blacklist celebrated Lawrie Kennedy’s birthday at Audio Glasgow Pre Damned punk gig that went down a storm.
Though non of the legendary 70s punk band The Damned managed to make it along to the gig, as they themselves where playing at the O2. Audio’s was jumping and more so when Fire Exit took to the stage to finish off what was a fantastic show.
But instead of leaving only to return to the chats of we want more and their final encore. Fire Exit singer Gerry ushered onto the stage Lawrie’s two girls who entered stage right carrying a birthday cake to a massive round off applause from the audience.
You know what! not many in the business can say they blew out birthday candles as part of their encore to a cheering audience and finishing off what was a fantastic show, which other wise would have been a dull rainy Sunday afternoon in Glasgow..

Sunlight through the fire exit stairs in a side alley off the quayside in newcastle.
Shot with the hipstamatic ap on an iphone 4.
Felt rubbish on Wednesday. Didn't really feel like doing photos. I popped down to the Sainsbury Centre for Visual Arts in the evening for a little while to see The Neutrinos, who were having some musical fun around the gallery. The acoustics down the end of this corridor were really great, so thats where Karen sat a while singing.
I liked the reflections off the glass of the gallery walls on this one.
Part of the challenge to take a photo a day in 2009.

I walk past this stairwell pretty much every day - today it suddenly caught my eye as something worth photographing - I like all the different lines and angles within it.
Still feeling a bit poo today - not helping my mood at work. Felt a bit better as the day went on though, and made a good start with my boss on a pretty horrible project. Looking forward to getting it done - although not to all the work that will inevitably follow.
Grump grump grump.
A return visit to the Shugborough Estate
Shugborough Hall is a stately home near Great Haywood, Staffordshire, England.
The hall is situated on the edge of Cannock Chase, about 5.8 miles (9.3 km) east of Stafford and 4.7 miles (7.6 km) from Rugeley. The estate was owned by the Bishops of Lichfield until the dissolution of the monasteries, upon which it passed through several hands before being purchased in 1624 by William Anson, a local lawyer and ancestor of the Earls of Lichfield. The estate remained in the Anson family for three centuries. Following the death of the 4th Earl of Lichfield in 1960, the estate was allocated to the National Trust in lieu of death duties, and then immediately leased to Staffordshire County Council. Management of the estate was returned to the National Trust in 2016. It is open to the public and comprises the hall, museum, kitchen garden and a model farm.
Shugborough Hall.
Went inside, you could photograph the rooms, other than the private Patrick Lichfield collection and rooms.
