Pictures from The Cockpit Leeds (Page 1 of 2)

Hi Tripsy. The pics are great. I was at the gig and managed to get a few decent shots. What camera were you using?

Thanks JonD. I've got a Fuji Finepix F30. I bought it because the reviews said it works especially well in low light conditions and I don't like to use a flash.
It takes good video too although it struggles with the sound when it gets really loud. Im still uploading my vids. Don't know how Michael did it so quickly!

Don´t be silly.
You have made some great pics.
Enjoyed watching them.
Just 1,5 week to wait for me... 

Thanks to you all for your kind words.
I think the internet is just the most wonderful thing ever invented. It really makes the world a smaller place and. It's great to be able to share your experiences with good people round the globe so easily.
Much love
Tripsy

Tripsy these are simply wonderful pictures and they would all look fab blown up and framed.  Gosh, there are some talented photographers on this forum.  Thanks for sharing them with us.

Hi Andre, set your camera to manual, open the aperture as wide as it will go, set your ISO to 800 and try to keep your shutter speed above 1/60th of a second to avoid blur (ideally 1/125th. When framing the pictures, half press the shutter and check the exposure settings, aim to shoot a little on the under exposed side,which will keep the shutter speed up and (hopefully) give you some moody shots. Just experiment and take loads of shots - and post them up here for us all to drool over. Oh yes, be first in the queue to get a front location just to the right of Joe's mic stand! Perfect! Look for unusual shots of Dave and Aaron too(we know him as "chad" because all we can see during the concert is the top of his head over the mix desk at the back of the stage) With a bit of luck Rick may have taken our advice and swung his mic stand from the right to give you a better view of his face!

Good shooting!

Sorry Tripsy,

I made an unforgettable mistake!!!!!!!!!!!!

I typed the wrong name on top, Libby but it must be TRIPSY off course.....
That name Libby , it's so often on the forum the last 2 weeks, I can't keep it out of my head.

I said already Libby to my wife, the neighbours dog, the postman...........

Sorry I should have know because Libby doesn't even have a camera!!!!!!!!!
( thanks for telling me Libby)

Andre Wittebroek.

I was happy to tell Andre that the FAB pics were yours Miss Tripsy!

You guys are TOO funny!  And Andre, I do have a camera.......I just don't have anything uploaded - not something I've tried yet.  I'm pretty intimidated now too, even though I'm an artist, by all of the superb talent I've witnessed here.

  Libby, Libby, Libby on the Label, Label, Label   

P.S.  There you go.....now besides having my name running through your head, you'll have that blasted commercial jingle running around inside it too!!!
