Willie Nelson - Concert Portrait
Contest Number: 115 Contest Theme: Portraits in Monochrome Lens: DA* 50-135mm Camera: Pentax K5 IIs Shutter Speed: 1/125s Aperture: F4 
Posted By: Jim Radcliffe, 03-19-2016, 09:04 AM

During every concert I shoot I like to take what I consider to be a Concert Portrait. This is one I took of Willie Nelson performing at Billy Bob's Texas (The World's Largest Honky Tonk) in Fort Worth, Texas. Using the K5 and the DA* 50-135mm lens.

I found the picture perfect. Great execution, perfect light, perfect framing and it's got the concentrated expression of a musician at work.

Accomplished at capturing intensity of well known performer. Great tonal spectrum as well.

Nice Willy ...

... but do you not have a licensing issue with the image of a performer without their permission ... or do you have it?
