“Sammy Hagar”

I like the lighting
I like the lighting, also. It was simple but effective stage lighting. I used no flash, in order to maintain the dramatic look that the stage lights provided.
I used Kodak Ektachrome color slide film and pushed the processing in order to raise the effective film speed. How fortunate we are now with digital to be able to do this in-camera and not sloshing about in chemicals in the darkroom!
