Gladys Knight @ the Fox Theatre -- 2008.07.13

Gladys Knight @ the Fox Theatre -- 2008.07.13 by Todd | ishootshows.com.
I had 60 seconds to photograph this set. Surprisingly, it felt like a lot longer than it was.

Legendary soul singer Gladys Knight, performing at the Fabulous Fox Theatre, July 13, 2008.

Nice Todd. The contrast is excellent, from the black dress to her hair. And the skin tone isn't washed out or underexposed not to mention her teeth are as white as can be. For a 60 second massive shooting spree, honestly, what is your ratio of hits and misses?

Great shot Todd! Wow 60 seconds only to photograph that's rough conditions! I never saw this kind of conditions before, not even a whole song.

Hey all, thanks so much for the feedback.

I think I shot around 70-80 shots during the first minute and I ended up delivering about 25 or so shots for the assignment. Maybe I shot more.

Normally I aim to include about 10-20% of the full set in the finals.

If anything, the relatively large number of shots I delivered was in large part due to the great lighting on Gladys Knight. The spotlights were actually a stop dimmer for Al Green!

About the 60 second limit, it was just a request of the artist.
