Back to Black - Gilberto Gil

Highlight: First time shooting in Old Spitalfields Market - a festival undercover - not usually good news but given the weather I was grateful.

Lowlight: Not having time to shoot the whole festival






Fill in: Redferns were desperate for this event to be covered but no one could do the whole event. I only had Sunday evening free so was not hopeful of getting the gig, but it was finally assigned to me. A festival under cover is not usually that atmospheric but the Summer weather was not really cutting it so I was glad to be under cover. The music was good, the crowd chilled out and Gilberto Gil's smile was enough to bring out the sunshine in your soul.

Tech spec:. Black stage, contrasty lighting so it was manual mode on 800 at around 1/200  F2.8.
