Shooting stars

Monday, January 31, 2011 | Blog Post

Have i told you that i like to shoot stars? … Well, each time i went for a photoshoot at an event, i will definitely look for “stars” …

Shooting “stars” are not as easy as looking at it – most of the time you have to be able to find it while maintaining your composition at the best angle possible. During in any live performance like the RWMF, no photographer can actually get to pose the subject / musicians so that they get the shot that they have in mind while trying to “survive” the crowd of many wild + crazy spectators. By the time you get your camera’s setting correct, chances are that you might not get the shot that you’re looking for, worst case – the subject is not even looking at your direction … To shoot a “star”, one photographer has to get his/her focus ready, stand still and wait till the right moment when the spotlights coming to point directly towards him/her – otherwise its gone in a split second … Your camera’s setting does contribute to the whole process though; aperture, ISO and shutter speed ….  and it takes a steady hand too or else, you might need at least a monopod to assist you with the shooting …
During any live concerts or live performance, often you will be disappointed by unpredicted passer-by and you have no control of them …

There are many photogs out there who think that they are great and that they always get to shoot beautiful photos – i say, try Concert Photography … @JoeMcNally
