Social Disorder... damn that's a dangerous looking guy...

As you may have read before, I've been to A Campingflight to Lowlands Paradise this weekend. Besides my mobile I brought a real camera as well, my trusty Nikon D70. Armed with a shitty lens I bought used for only 100 euro's I tried to make the best of it. It was rather hard to get sharp pictures because often I had to stand quite far from the stage in the middle of the crowd. After some tweaking and tinkering with my settings I managed to squeeze just enough light and detail out of the lens and shot some pretty good pics! Here's some of them.

Frank Los
Singer of Social Disorder, right after finishing his set.

Mark Foggo, singer of a nice Ska band.

A member of Apocalyptica. Who said classical instruments are for wusses?

Heather Nova. Breathtaking...

Heather Nova again. Can't get enough of her!

If you want to see some more pics, check this forum thread (it's Dutch but photo's don't need translation eh?) and for the candid / fun shots check this posting on my Dutch blog

@Geert (who asked in Dutch whether there’s been photoshop work on the Apocalyptica one) :

The only things I did were bumping up the exposure because I had to shoot underexposed. There’s been no editing or retouching on these shots apart from some cropping and then resizing.

Got something to add to this?
