Looking for Photos of Hammond B3 in Action

[shleiken]

I'm designing a CD jacket for a guy who plays a Hammond B3 and I'm looking for some shots of the instrument in action. Ideally hands on the keyboard, or some kind of ambiance shot. The face of the performer has to be either obscured or the composition should be such that it would be easy to crop out. I figured if anyone might have something, the talented photogs on this forum would.

The image will be used behind the CD in the jacket, and the guy is only going to "press" 1,000 copies so I can promise this isn't a high paying gig. But if you've got a shot, please post it here and if it works I'll get right back to you. Oh, and by the way, I need the image by Tuesday. Thank you.

That's a pretty specialised request. Wouldn't it be easier to get a photographer in for an hour to shoot a few shots?

It would, if there were any budget. Actually, I'd love to shoot it myself but my client is across the country and he wants the artwork done tomorrow. So, I thought I'd give this a try. Didn't work out but what the heck, it was worth a try.

Are you still looking for shots? The keyboardist in my band has a B3 at our rehearsal studio. I will be there tonight, and could get some shots.

Those are nice shots, I especially like the bottom one. I could have used them but I saw them too late. Thank you, though.

This need could come up again as the artist I did the CD for might do another album. It depends on how the first one goes. I'll keep you in mind.
