With Anthrax done and it was time for Megadeth to take the Big 4 stage. This time I was more in the middle of the photo pit and managed to get some fun shots, especially of Dave Mustaine with his double neck flying V guitar. I just wish I had been able to move towards the edges to change the angles on some of the shots which would have given me different backgrounds. I really like to try to get the hair flying all over the place and Megadeth make this easy… Even got the drummer with his hair flying…
All images were taken with Nikon D3 and D700 cameras with 70-200mm f/2.8, 300mm f/4 and 24-70mm f/2.8 on Hoodman RAW CompactFlash cards.
A great day for metal! Love the shots, looking forward to you posting Slayer and Metallica stuff! Sorry about XXXX- his blog is pretty funny and he goes way back with all these guys, so probably a necessary evil…
Great shots! 🙂
