Was at Leeds academy tonight for Evanescence supported by The Pretty Reckless.

Have never shot either before so it was good to shoot a little bit of glam )

K-5 with Tamron 17-50mm
GX20 with DA35mm f/2.4

Both used wide open

Very good shots, the third one being my favourite. Love the colour from the lights and the guitarist in the background.

Top shots again, I like the guitarist (3rd)shot as well
even though there is a distracting highlight on his amp.

I prefer normal colours though as per the last two.

What do you set your WB to when the lightings coloured?
Tungsten?
Half Man... Half Pentax ... Half Cucumber

Pentax K-1 + K-5 and some other stuff

Hi nice photos,good colours,amazingly sharp.
I like the 3rd the best.
One thing puzzles me though,in your listed gear you state
Pentax K-5 with LL80, which should be fitted to either K10D and K20D,
when i have looked up for a Pentax K-5 they state ML-60
which i know is £15/£20 dearer, but the photos show the tabs(LL80) on the othere side, so does the LL80 have to be fitted the the wronge way around?
k-5, K-5ii,60-250 f4, 50 f1.4 af,17-70 f4, 100mm macro wr,siggy 10-20 siggy 100-300f4

Thats a fantastic set of images, the colour and lighting is very dramatic.

WB is set to AWB then slightly adjusted in post. Lighting is pretty much determined by the band, Pretty Reckless had plain white lights where as Evanescence had lots of purple & blues.

In my sig I list 2 x GX20 these had the LL80 fitted. I need to update my gear list as I recently sold one of my GX20's, need to sell the other now so I can get a second k-5...

Thanks for all the nice comments...
