PhotoSynthesis: David Bowie

Previous | Next

Los Angeles, 1976: The great thing about that [David Bowie] tour, was that it had some of the most phenomenal concert lighting I've ever seen, even to this day. It was all white light, clean and pure, and if there were some higher metaphorical meaning to the lighting design, I couldn't have cared less. This show was fun to shoot. Really fun. "Gimme my bag of film and let 'er rip" kind of fun. The photo also perfectly illustrates the way I like my performance photos to look: very clean, as few distractions in the background as possible, with plenty of drama.

I'm not a big David Bowie fan... But I do think he's a great musician... But, something about this photo made me feel sad... I'ts a moment captured that moved me...
