First Low Light Photos with the R3A

[dazedgonebye]

I usually use the Hexar for the rare low light shot. This time though, I wanted to take the R3A with me and be able to use the 21mm with it. So, for the sake of a light bag, I did not pack the Hexar AF.

Blues dive in Shreveport Louisiana.

Steve -- Looks like you've got a winning film/camera/lens/developer going there! Nice shots -- I particularly like the first and last ones.

Awesome shots. What speed were they shot at?

Nice shots. I especially like the first bass player. You seem to have focused your attention on bass players generally. Are you one yourself? Great work. Enjoy.

The place was horribly lit. The bass player's position was the only one that actually had light anywhere near the musician's face.
I only play air guitar...and only when no one is looking.

Good work. It usually needs luck to get "killer" shots in such circumstances.
