Backstage Nerves

For a while now I have been shooting part time for a local newspaper which takes me all over the place (mostly locally) to shoot various stories. I really enjoy the freedom being out of the ‘office’ and challenges that come with the variety that is inherent in this type of work. I will attempt to post a some images here every couple of days to keep things up to date and also to showcase my work as a work in progress. Constructive criticism welcome! Thanks and stay tuned….

   I love this shot! but to me he doesn’t look nervous in the least…he has a calmness to him…I dig this!

   Yes I would agree with his shoulders dropped like that he has a air of calmness about him. Perhaps it was the moment he was comfortable with his lines right before he went on stage. I like the “building props” in the background that are literally propped up wooden planks

   Thanks for the comments!
