Suffocation – Death Feast Open Air 2010
Posted by Daniel at 2. Juli 2010 | Category Festival, Live, Photography, Pictures
Suffocation are not only one of the most influential Grindcore Bands out there and pioniers in this genre of music, but also one of the most fun Bands to see live. Not ony is the whole Band giving their best all the time, taking up the entire stage headbanging and moving around, Singer Frank Mullen is also one of the funniest and craziest fronters around. Next to that the Band really knows how to play and with an incredible great sound, there couldn’t have been a better headliner in the last spot of the Festival.
Shooting Notes
Shooting Suffocation this evening wasn’t much different to all the other Bands playing with no ambient light available any longer. I had to get the flash out of the bag, set my ISO to 800 and opened my aperture wide to f2.8. I just changed the shutter speed from time to time between 1/60 and 1/160 of a second to get more stagelight on the sensor, keeping it always fast enough to freeze the guys on stage and work against motionblur (which wasn’t that easy with the Band moving all the time). With singer Frank Mullen getting always up to the edge of the stage the 10-22 was an ideal choice to get a couple of close up wide angle shots.
