10 things you can shoot
this month, from trainers
and stairwells to kingfishers
and super squirrels
Let the music play
Nigel R Glasgow shares his tips and tricks
for capturing the essence of live music
n March 2020, I was
prepping to leave on tour
for the year – I was a tour
manager for a number
of acts around the world.
We all know what happened next, and
how that impacted an industry that
relies on travel and mass gatherings.
Fast forward a few months: after lots
of cycling and tidying my flat, I decided
that making banana bread wasn’t for me.
So I took my Pentax K-S2 out of a drawer.
I had bought the camera a few years
previously, with the intention of learning
how to shoot then taking it on tour.
However, it mostly stayed on the bus.
I began studying the camera then moved
onto Lightroom and Photoshop, before
researching master painters, colour
theory, composition and lighting.
That, coupled with practising my
photography on everything from people
(when restrictions allowed) to products,
landscapes and night street scenes,
led to my first exhibition, in London
about a year later.
I continue to shoot everything
from properties to products, and
from portraits to event parties, using
techniques from one discipline and
carrying them across to another.
