This was all pre-planned! A friend of mine was on the bill that night and I asked him if he could get permission from the club owner to shoot this DJ. Jeff Mills is probably teh best known techno dj in the world - he has a massive cult following. My plan is to build up a portfolio of "superstar djs" and/or bands. This is an area of photography that I would love to break into someday, so I have to start somewhere!
For the shots - no tripod, just a flash to freeze his face. The exposure could have been longer that 5 seconds, the background light here was so strong that I decided to take my finger off the shutter fairly shortly after I hit it to avoid burning!
So, yo utake your camera, and presumably a tripod, clubbing. This is just the reason I;m not out there getting teh shots you do - dedication.! Respect!Mills don;t move much in 5secs does he? Is he a friend - I've not met many DJ's who'd want someone poking about round there in clubs i've visited. Rgds Matt
