Photo of the Day: July 9, 2008

2008_0709_brandonwu.jpg

Did anyone catch the Boris show on the main stage of the Black Cat last night? From the looks of this photo by flickr contributor brandonwu, it was quite an experience. The Black Cat promised this band from Japan would be "rocking us like a hurricane" with Boris as "the eye of the storm." Seems a bit extreme, but after looking at this winning photo, shot at ISO 6400 with an 18-70 lens, that might be an accurate description. EXIF.

Wouldn't this poor analogy mean that Boris was the calmest part?

Rakasu: Yes, it would actually. I actually think the photo works best with the "eye of the storm" analogy, with the smoke and haze surrounding the band members in their still (if only for the moment) state.
