Live music event Photography: Metaprism 19.09.2015



So it's been a month since my first taste of live event photography and couldn't resist revisiting 'Metaprism'. On entering the Firehouse in Southampton I gave a huge sigh of relief, the venue was bigger and had so much more light! The gig, as before was great and I had so much fun being spontaneous and not worrying too much about setting up the shot and being perfect but more about capturing the moment as it happens. The things I want to work on include my exposure control, being more ballsey and no in camera editing, in other words I need to relinquish control, stop looking to see if I have the shot and just capture, capture, capture! Again, I definitely need to update my camera....started to get a little annoyed with the 'busy' screen while using continuous capture but felt my prime lens was adequate and another size would be a welcome addition to my kit.
