Hello. I've been observing here ( ok...lurking ), for a few weeks now since Tom ( t ), invited me over here (thanks tom). I decided it's finally time for me to jump in with a photo, so here's my first submission. Done for a musician to be used in promotional packages with other stage shots of him and his band. The high contrast here was his choice, which was a good thing since the lighting in this little club made it difficult to do anything else. I used rear curtain flash to get some movement blur but keep a degree of sharpness needed for his purpose. Tri-x film developed in microdol-x, scanned from negative. Background burned in photoshop. By the way... his wife loves this photo... do you see why?
