Capturing a Fantastic Night of Live Music at Otley Common
Two of our Otley Camera Club members, Alistair How and Richard Sells, were out with their cameras last night, heading to Otley Common to photograph a fantastic evening of live music.
Organised by Otley Folk Festival, the packed Wesley Hall welcomed Steve Knightley, the singer-songwriter and driving force behind folk duo Show of Hands, who performed alongside his band, with support from Megan Henwood.
It was a fantastic night, with a packed hall enjoying an evening of live music. From the performances on stage to the atmosphere in the audience, there was plenty for our photographers to capture.
Photographing live music is always an interesting challenge. Working with stage lighting, changing colours and performers constantly moving around requires good timing and an ability to anticipate those special moments. Alistair and Richard were there to capture the energy and character of the evening, helping to preserve the memories of a brilliant night.
It's always great to see Otley Common hosting such fantastic events and bringing people together. As a club based at Otley Common ourselves, we're particularly pleased to be able to support events taking place in the building.
We're also delighted to support the work of Otley Folk Festival, whose events bring wonderful musicians and performers to the area.
Whether it's live music, theatre or other community activities, photography offers a wonderful way to document what's happening locally and celebrate the people who make these events possible.
A big thank you to Otley Folk Festival and Otley Common for welcoming Alistair and Richard along. We hope you enjoy the photographs!
