I photographed Lady Gaga performing at Joe Louis Arena in Detroit last night. Challenging to shoot. One song, last song (which was weird), waiting for an hour, long day (shot auto show all day), lots of fog/smoke, lots of back-light, fast changing light, tall stage, hoping to get enough different shots for a gallery first, not much time to think creative with different angles 2nd but it worked out ok. Started in manual exposure but light was changing to much so switched to aperture priority pushed a little. Shot in RAW because I know the exposure might be off in some frames and it would be easier to adjust. I would have liked some better wide shots but you get what you given sometimes. Pushing the button is the easy part.
