three concert photos, three old Pentax lenses, and bokeh. . . .
Three images from my gig this past Wednesday evening at the S-Barn in Spring Green, WI, where a local (Madison, WI) performer, Jake'O, played the first set, and Rod Hamdallah, currently out of Atlanta, played the second set.
All three photos were made with my K-3ii; the first photo was made with my K 24/2.8, not a lens I'd normally expect interesting bokeh from, but in this case, it delivered, thanks to the rather close-focus on the "dance zone" sign.
The second photo was made with my K 85/1.8 either wide-open or at f/2.8. Hard to keep track of that data during a gig, especially when one's shooting Jake'O, who in this image is playing his turquoise Ibanez hollow-body, his bass player in the background along with posters from previous S-Barn shows.
The third photo is of Rod Hamdallah's bass player, an image made with my newly acquired M 120/2.8, probably wide-open.
(If you're interested, you can see more of the photos from that night--from me and another photographer, Rob Steffen (two full-frame Canons, each with a big ol' zoom)--on the BarnSessions Facebook page's albums sometime next week after Connie, the photo maven, posts them.)
