Finally got some of the better concert photos scanned although getting the levels balanced out is proving to be a pain and so the photos scanned are not quite as they are if you were to see them yourself. This was Behemoth in Sydney, January 2006.

This has to be one of my favourite concert photos I've ever taken and it was a fun one to take. It was very near the begining of the concert, and I reckon when they were playing one of the songs from Demigod. Nergal must have seen the camera when he was coming to that side of the stage and since this is something I've seen him do in quite a few other live photos and just more regular portraits, I guessed that at some point he'd do that during the concert and it would make for a good photo and would probably have only one chance of getting a good shot. So yeah he was over towards my side of the venue and posed for just enough time. I was most pleased to discover for certain that I had got this shot and that it did actually turn out good and I think if anything sums up that concert, this is probably it. It makes me laugh every time I look at it.

Killer shot!! Great rawness and it's a real dirty photo - savage as hell looking, the bad scan makes it so much better. Looks real fuckin' 80s thrash, no digital cameras or any of that shit, really fuckin' refreshing to see some of this kind of stuff mate.

Thanks, glad you like it. :) Yeah, I would like a digital camera some day but for concerts I'd be reluctant to take one just for that if it got smashed that's a lot of money to spend to replace it if insurance doesn't cover it, or if you find you are not allowed cameras, it's a target for some less than honest bouncer to lift and keep for themselves.

The camera I used was just some little thing, no fancy lens to zoom in with or anything, just set the flash, point, focus and click! :D

Do you know what Jesus said in John Chapter 5? He said "don't bring me any trouble, bitch."

Yeah, by far one of the best concert experiances yet.
