Bono caught struggling and trying to plug his jack into his guitar. My finger had accidentally pressed the shutter and my flash fired. He looked up with a "what the?!" reaction and I quickly clicked again (without flash) and caught this reaction

I caught this as Bono stepped in front of a massive light that was in my eyes, it silhoutted behind him to give this great backlit effect

Moving on from yesterdays post of the Zootv tour, here are a selection of pictures I took at the three gigs I saw on their Popmart tour.
I was lucky enough to see both shows in London, and one in Edinburgh. Most of these pictures are cropped (something I never normally like to do) due to the fixed postition I was often in and the interruption of hands/security/other objects that broke into the frame. Occasionally however, they are full frame shots.
All of these are scanned from the original photographs. If you want to chart my history of cameras (!) I had moved onto a Hulux Twin Lens compact camera for this concert!! It was a nasty little plastic thing that never really lined up the sprockets of my film right and would often not wind on correctly!!
