Shooting concert with Canon 5D classic - Zoster

in portraitphotography •  6 years ago 

Last week i was faced with a challenge that i think many photographers have. If you go somewhere do you take your camera with you or not. Do you take the camera and take photos and not be 100% on the event or just not take your camera and then think "this would be a great photo" all the time :). As i had my Canon 5D classic just for few days (it really is like a child when it gets a new toy :) ) i decided to take the camera and photograph for first few songs and then just put it away and enjoy.

Something about the band:

Zoster was created 18 years ago in Mostar as reggae group with interesting lyrics. My first contact with their music was around 2008 at the friends home party. We were just hanging out and on the Ko je Jamio Jamio started. I was not really paying attention but then i heard the part "Ko je išta krao neka vrati sve, ko je bio lopov neka ne bude" (hard to translate but its something like "whoever took anything should return everything, who was a thief let it not be" ). I know it sounds crazy but i just fell in love in that "simplicity". It is not complicated, just don't do bad shit :) the song is about hypocrisy of prosecution of average people by people that had stolen millions during and after the war in former Yugoslavia (and probably not just Yugoslavia). Interesting music video at the end of the post.

In third album they abandoned the reggae sound but still kept the thing i love about them and that are crazy but great lyrics, and the music just grown on me later :)

One from the last album


All photos taken with Canon 5D classic and Canon 85mm 1.8. For me 5D classic showed that it is still a great camera.
