an old friend comes through

On assignment for Cincinnati Mag last week to photograph the Motr Pub on Main.  It was dark, not very busy and there were the normal challenges that come with those situations - high ISO, camera shake and blurry people.  By 12:15 I was tired & already had 500 images on the card but decided to stay until my old friend Jeff Roberson took to the stage.  I first met Jeff years ago when he worked at Robin Imaging and I still processed a lot of film.  Jeff is a Photoshop guru, RIT grad, photographer, motorcycle collector, musician and as I learned that evening, a stay at home dad.  After another 200 images and an hour of great music I was rewarded with the image I was hoping for.  It may not make the magazine, but it says a whole lot about the night.
