A take on Billy Holiday

Shot some photos awhile ago for my sister, her voice blows me away every time I hear her. http://regalpix.smugmug.com/photos/167266578_9UtEX-L-3.jpg

Your sister should love that shot... I love what you've done with the post processing.

Would you care to share how you achieved that look?

Hey Blackshadow,

Thanks, glad you like it.

This was shot with (can't believe I'm saying this) an S2IS, in super low light, it's the reason it has so much so much grain. But that's what I love about it.

Hoping to pick up a 70-200 f2.8 to add to my bag now.

Good job and you'll love having the 70-200 2.8 in your bag. If your budget will handle it go for the IS version (I've had both and the IS makes a huge difference for concert shooting).

Very "Ella Fitzgerald-ish". Great job.

quick search, I knew I had a particular image in mind when I said that...

A very dreamy and romantic image, ideally suited to the b&w treatment.

You caught a very striking pose of her, beautiful!

nice shot, i could have told you who this photo was alluding to without you saying it! Nice work!

I really appreciate all the positive feedback on this image! Thanks so much to each of you. Once I have my hands on the 70-200 f2.8 (yes with the IS for sure Blackshadow) I plan on doing another shoot for her and the band. Now that my gear is pretty much in line, I feel I'll do even better.

yep - sure looks like your gear is in line to me! Regardless, im sure the band will be stoked on what you deliver
