Photographing Carnegie Hall

Carnegie Hall has been extensively photographed so it was my aim to depict the space not from the view of a benefactor but from the perspective of the Average Joe’s seat. This presents a number of challenges seeing as though the stage is brightly lit and the seating is almost completely darkened during a performance. Great care was taken to blend multiple exposures in such a way that preserves the look and feel of concert lighting while still highlighting details throughout the image.

Photographed on the Sony A9 and Sony FE 24-70 f/2.8.
