Hello to the whole community, here I am again with my concert photos!
I told you about the concerts organized by the Noirgazer collective, my previous post in this community was about that (@altor/weird-gig-in-church-of)

The concert was held at Karga Bar in Kad谋k枚y, Istanbul, which is famous for hosting a lot of alternative music. On four different stages, musicians showed their talents. Of course, Ordinare X, a visual artist who does live mapping in the visual sense, has a big share in making these photos special for me. The fractal and complex visual images projected simultaneously with the music made the photographs even more interesting.

Music with Machines; he is both a musician and a teacher. I had the chance to photograph him on two different stages so far. His performance is based on synthesizer. I can say that he has a pleasant and dynamic music.

And - in my opinion - Arden had the strangest scene of the night. From backstage, he walked slowly to the stage in the dark and low tempo music, flanked by two performance artists in fetish outfits. Arden played his songs; sometimes he read poetry/text over his music; sometimes he played a woodwind midi. And the dancers did free dances related to his music. I couldn't take many photos as I was watching this scene with rapt attention, sorry.

I think the other listeners shared my thoughts; it was a good and interesting event.

I took the photos with Sony A7SIII and Sony 50mm f/1.8 prime lens. The darkness of the environment made me a bit nervous at first, but Sony's sensor and working at low aperture saved the photos from possible noiselessness.
I don't introduce myself as a 'photographer' when I meet new people. But I have been taking photos for more than 10 years in many different concepts, either professionally or for my own art. Many times; I have taken photos of concerts and artistic events. These photos are special for me; the detail I like is definitely: the mapping show. It doesn't always happen at every concert :)
I hope you like the photos.
Love.
