This was one of my favorite events. Every Thursday Night for almost a year there was a Poetry Slam in a Night Club called Poetry. I shot the different performers while reciting their poetry. They were not allowed to read their work. They had to have it memorized. This was a tough room to shoot because there wasn’t much light to work with. I always felt like a simper waiting for a clean shot. Photoshop skills were very important for this event. Getting the beautiful background to show up was took some work. The camera never seems to be as sensitive as the human eye.
