Sometimes, you're on assignment for a small gig without a pit. And sometimes, during said gig, they light the entire show with yellow-orange front-lighting. What do you do?
Photographer's Notes:
Cameras Used:
- Nikon D3
- Nikon D700
Lenses Used:
The lighting for headliners Me Talk Pretty wasn't pretty, but sometimes you just have to go in and bring home the best possible results.
Personally, I'm not a big fan of converting images to black and white simply because of the lighting, even in the instances of severe red light. Instead, a little WB tweak can go a long way – it's not going to completely kill a lighting effect, but it's enough to make a performer not look like they're covered in lava. Maybe.
