Actually, this isn’t a concert at all. I had photographed Helen Webb giving a live performance some weeks earlier and she invited me to an open mic event she was hosting where I got this shot. The difficulty with such shots are usually the stage lighting casting shadows and the singer being too close to the microphone and obscuring some or all of the mouth. Here, I was lucky – there is separation between the mic and her face and the shadow from the mic falls across her chin rather than her mouth. I still wish it wasn’t there though…
