OLLABELLE at the Stanhope House |
|
|
|
My wife and I went to see Ollabelle in concert at the
Stanhope House in Stanhope NJ on August 16th. The venue is a
wonderful place to have an intimate experience with a band.
Ollabelle harmonized and played wonderfully. They are a very gifted group who you would like to see have a tremendous amount of success. I don't profess to know every song they played but I do know that the first set was mainly selections from their recent album Riverside Battle Songs and that their first album (Ollabelle) comprised the majority of the second set. They also did several songs on their encore to a very enthusiastic crowd. The following pics are from the evening with Ollabelle. A photographers note: Lighting for this shoot was very challenging. I was about 40 feet or so from the stage and used a 70-300mm lens that has a 1.5X crop factor. I shot in the Tungsten mode at 3200 ISO. All these images were shot at shutter speeds of 1/4 to 1/15 of a second with focal lengths between 150 and 300mm - so forgive the blurs at times - some work, some not as much. Lighting on the guys was particularly rough, so there are fewer shots of them in close up that I could pull off. Amy and Fiona fell in the best light, though Amy moved a light off here that made it harder to produce solid images. |
