Why I Love This Photo: There’s a fallacy surrounding concert photography: With interesting-looking people in crazy outfits, their faces filled with emotion under colorful lights, snapping a great image must be a piece of cake. The truth is that shooting concerts is incredibly challenging. The dim lighting requires expensive high-speed lenses; the low aperture combined with energetic subjects makes focusing difficult. Not to mention, venues often only allow shooting for the first couple of songs. As a result, finding the perfect moment and having the ability to capture it is the mark of a skilled photographer.
