Local Bands
I took my first photographs of the onstage action in smoky oddly-lit clubs sometime in 2002 or 2003, probably because I happened to be there with a camera. I was curious to see what was possible without a flash in such poorly-lit conditions. As my equipment has improved, I've alternated between methods using black & white, ultra-fast lens, flash, and infrared; always looking for a new methods to capture what's happening accurately while attempting to picture it a new light.

| Random Quote | Chester Kent: "I'll let you in on a little secret... I don't believe that all this sadness really exists."
Narcissa: "What a delightful notion."
Chester Kent: "Well, bad things happen... I'm not denything that, plenty of them. But somehow, when people start trying show how they've been affected by these bad things, they start faking it. They know that deep down, no one really cares, but they want people to know they're suffering dammit. And others will go along with it, making faces, hoping someone will notice. So that when something awful happens to them, they can get some of this fake pity for themselves."
