As some of you know already, I did take part in the 4th Plinth Project in London. And as I posted about it, I wanted to now share some of the result from the day. I used a Bronica medium format (which uses 120 Film Rolls) and took a series of 12 photos.
Here it is, straight out from the scan, the best 5: (more…)

So yesterday I covered the last event from the RSA. A very interesting and educating evening, I have to admit. All the designers made RDI are amazing people, who have contributed to the design world in such a way you would never guess. Some have designed elements of the James Bond movies, like one of the supercars. Some others created pieces of furniture and other concepts that made it around the world.

I have been a big Maxwell fan for over 10 years now, and I was waiting for his return to Europe for quite some time. So when the new album “BLACKsummers’ night” was announced I contacted B&S Magazine and told the editor he had to get me this gig! And thanks to him it happened.
Now I got there, all excited, and the first surprise was that I seemed to be the only photographer… But once I got to the pit, the security guys told me that Maxwell’s management was not allowing anyone in the front of the stage, and that I had to shoot from either side. I could not move from side to side once the gig would start. And as you guys probably know by now if you have been following my blog, we are only allowed to shoot the first 3 songs with no flash. It’s not systematic, but almost.

So who is not a fan of all the Motown tunes we all know?
I had the chance to spend quite a few evenings last week shooting the different performances put together to celebrate Motown and the music and people during these wonderful years. And the person in the center of this reunion was Jack Ashford. [...]

Another Gig shot for Blues and Soul Magazine this week. And Although Ginuwine was supporting Joe, it felt like two well polished shows in one night!
Ginuwine rocked the house, showing a happy face all through his performance. Being back on stage and connecting with his audience seemed to make him nostalgic. He sang old tunes and new material. And he even made a Michael Jackson tribute by singing a great medley of his best tunes. The people in the audience sang with him and showed him some love.

Well, although I was really looking forward to this one, I had a pretty difficult gig. I got there fairly early and was asked to wait in the hall after getting my photo pass. And 10 mins after the show started, they still hadn’t put me (and 2 other photographer) through.
Eventually, they took us down to the pit. The first 2 songs had gone by already, and I started shooting. and literally after about 4 mins, they asked us all to stop and escorted us out!
So, I’m afraid the result is not as good as usually, and I am pretty disappointed. But hey, what can you do! I ended up with this set:

I’ll be promoting a project put together by Jeremy Cowart called Help-portrait. The idea being to find people/charities that could do with free quality portrait and give them the photos for free. It will take place on the 12th December 2009 and this will be my attempt to get as many people involved as possible!
