36 Crazyfists

One from 36 Crazyfists, who opened up for In Flames. Because sometimes, all you need is one.

The Alaskan four-piece had some tremendous backlighting during their set (which should not be confused with strong backlighting) that made for some cool opportunities.

For the above shot, 14mm on the Nikon 14-24mm f/2.8 did the job. One of the many things I appreciate about this lens is that the ultra wide field of view can take relatively poor light and turn it into something much more impressive than it really is.
