It&#8217;s not like I&#8217;m not shooting, I&#8217;ve shoot over 40Gb of Raw files this week. It&#8217;s just that it no longer serves a purpose. Picking one image when I want to show 4 doesn&#8217;t make sense. Also folderblog as a photoblogging tool has died a death, with no support for years and years. It was inevitable that it had to go. I&#8217;ve also been using MarsEdit with my other specific blogs (lightroom-blog.com and lightroom-news.com), so it seems obvious to use tools that interface with this. I also wanted to have a certain amount of story telling in my posts, rather than quick comments about a photo. Also the total lack of comments (bar a handful of you) means I&#8217;ve no idea if anyone even looks in!<br \/>\nSo the intention is to post more general stuff, a mix of tools, tales and photos. And to that end:<\/p>\n<div align=\"center\">\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/seanmcfoto.com\/web\/Dandy%20Worhols_250708_193.jpg\"><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/seanmcfoto.com\/web\/Dandy%20Worhols_250708_279.jpg\">\n<\/div>\n<p>2 shots from The Dandy Worhols, as they played the final gig in the Big Top for the Galway Arts Festival. <\/p>\n<p>The standard procedure for gigs is first 3 songs, no flash. So bands like to screw with this. Debbie Harry wore sunglasses and a hoodie for the first few songs. The Dandy Worhols just left the lights down. We&#8217;re taking 1\/25s @ISO1600 f2.8 down @200mm. At least they weren&#8217;t moving too fast! The third song had lots of light though! Phew!<br \/>\nThese 2 are from the earlier songs. If I get a chance, I&#8217;ll add a few more to this post. I intend posting more festival stuff over the next while. I&#8217;ll also be seeking out templates and designs for the blog, and I may create a Lightroom flash slideshow, specifically for the photos shown here. <\/p>\n<p>As for the old site? <a href=\"http:\/\/seanmcfoto.com\/randompanderings\/old\">Try here!<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1853","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.seanmcfoto.com\/smcc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1853","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.seanmcfoto.com\/smcc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.seanmcfoto.com\/smcc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.seanmcfoto.com\/smcc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.seanmcfoto.com\/smcc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1853"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.seanmcfoto.com\/smcc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1853\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.seanmcfoto.com\/smcc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1853"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.seanmcfoto.com\/smcc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1853"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.seanmcfoto.com\/smcc\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1853"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
