Ritva introduces her music challenge like this: “Whether it’s a street artist down the street, local band or a world‑famous rockstar on stage, this challenge is all about capturing the energy, excitement, and emotion of live music—or anything connected to it.”
I attended many concerts in the days before cell phones and cameras weren’t allowed. In more recent years I have enjoyed photographing music performances in many different kinds of environments.
It’s fun learning more about famous musicians. We toured Elvis Presley’s home Graceland in Memphis, The B.B. King museum in Mississippi, and the Buddy Holly museum in Texas
Athens, Georgia is the home of many famous bands including R.E.M., The B-52’s, and Widespread Panic. The three locations in the final gallery are a part of the music history in Athens.
Last week Anne had us moving our body to capture our subjects. Your responses were incredible. Thank you to everyone who joined the challenge.
