For today, rather than a comp, a rant about DSLR mags, or some particular LX3 feature, advantage, benefit – just an image.
Walking along Coventry Street in London this morning, close to Leicester Square, there were two particular groups of people. One was an ever-growing queue awaiting the appearance of Johnny Depp for the film premiere tonight – they had a long wait in the 30C heat – and the other, captured here, was paying tribute at a memorial for Michael Jackson… his death certainly a sad loss.
Although often controversial, especially in recent years, there’s no doubting his songwriting & performing talent – and his innate ability, like so many like him, to surround himself with world-class players.
For those of you like me that may appreciate great guitar-playing, just think of some of the guitarists that have graced several of his best-known tracks … Eddie Van Halen, Slash, Steve Lukather, Steve Stevens… some of my favourite players of all time.
This photograph – captured by LX3 on my way through, in challenging light conditions - is here for the very many that appreciated his music. Capturing a small slice of time – in a technically high-quality image – is made all the more easy with an LX3 as constant companion.
