As part of a journey from Chicago to New Orleans taking shots for a book on Highway 61 I was lucky enough to go to this festival in Helena, Arkansas but unlucky in that I managed to break my HVL58 before this (at Chess studios as it happens) As a result these shots are done with an A900, the 70-400G and the HVL F20AM!

I find HVL20 reasonable if the subjects are reasonably close. Excellent capture of the mood, and the artists in action.

That 70-400G keeps popping up, tempting me, drawing me further and further into the vortex of lens addiction. :lol:

With best regards,
Sury

I love the first two in the set. I take it HVL20 is still at work. The B&W is my favorite.
