Foreigner

No, I don't mean the interesting people from abroad that come here to make a new life for themselves. I mean the band that should have called it quits years ago.

They played at the annual Rock the Square fundraiser at Hutchins Street Square on Friday. It's a huge fundraiser for local charities. Each year they bring in a different band. Last year the Doobie Brothers put on a great show. The year before that was Kenny Loggins(I can't imagine any square being rocked by the singer of
Rainbow Connection). This year it was the driving force behind songs such as Urgent and Dirty White Boys.

These guys had more cheese than a pizza. And the women were going nuts for it. Was it the booze they'd been drinking all night? I sure hope so because if acting like the lead singer is what I'll have to do to get a lady when I'm older I'm afraid I'll be single my whole life.

I was laughing most of the time I was there shooting.


That is all. Remember to check out the other blogs I link to, especially the Wade Wire.

And Now For Something Completely Different

You won't see me doing this often; wedding photos(actually, you don't see me doing portraits in general as I don't like them much). Now this isn't an actual wedding. That's not for another week. These are just some shots i took while checking out the site for next week's wedding. Very simple setup on these. Two Sb-600s triggered by an Sb-900. My buddy Brian was holding a large diffuser off camera on most of the shots, blocking the sunlight and getting rid of that ugly dappled shade/sun combo.

Paul and Naomi were great subjects. I can't wait to do more of this and get more shots next Monday.
