Nightwish in Hamburg
September 30th, 2007 — Posted by benedikt — Filed in Other
I’ve spent a fuckin’ great weekend in Hamburg … again! I finally met Jarmo and Sushi Patrol Nightwish did an amazing concert in the “Delphi Showpalast”. The venue was quite small but very nice. There were just about 300 people but they rocked they house. It was the first time for me to see Anette performing. They did a couple of songs from the new album, Dark Passion Play, and even some old stuff. The after-show-party didn’t last long so the night ended in a small hotel party. ;-)
On saturday there was a signing session in a Saturn-store. The number of attending fans was amazing (700+), but Nightwish did them all in about 2 hours. I took photos of both the concert and the signing session:

Up From The Ground '07 - Day 1
August 25th, 2007 — Posted by benedikt — Filed in Other
I’m currently in Gemünden visiting the Up From The Ground Festival to shoot some photos. The weather is – unlike last year – great. Unfortunately the light on stage isn’t that good and it’s hard to achieve good results. In addition I’ve some auto-focus trouble with my Sigma lens and the security guys have strange instructions (they only allow ten people for two songs in the photopit, and then again ten people for another two songs … that’s just 20 of about 60 photo accreditations this year). As a result I’ve only done a few photos … here are some of them:
Arch Enemy


Illdisposed

Sonic Syndicate

That’s it for now … maybe I’ll upload some more tomorrow … :-)

I’m now working for the mac-fans at bytebetrieb.com. Thanks to Moritz and Stefan — who contacted me using Xing — for giving me the chance to do some useful stuff! ;-) I’m primarily working with their in-house CMS called Fast Publishing System (FPS). Check out their website and blog!
