Started the day finding the lovely
Chrome Divas from Cincinatti checking into the same motel to start their weekend of fun at
Ohio Bike week so I knew the day would be productive. Next I ventured to downtown Sandusky where vendors, bikers and everyone else was gathering for the day's activities.
While scouting out the activities I met DJ Dave who was representing HD Media whom introduced me to some of the band members his marketing group represents and pointed out that one of the band members of Saliva was nearby scarfing up some free stuff at the Jagermiester tent. While I do listen to Saliva and like a lot of their songs, I don't however know band members by name but here he is hamming it up for me along with one of the beautiful Jager girls. I told you the day was going to be productive.
She was too cute to have just one shot of and I had been admiring the photographic opportunity of this slick black El Camino sitting on the dock of the lake so I conned her in to giving me a few more shots. Not positive whom the car belongs to but someone said it was the owner of Roeder Harley here in Sandusky so if it is then even better and I hope he don't mind, shhhhh!
During the wait for Saliva's free concert to begin, the crowd was fired up with music and the performance of stunt riders StarBoyz. Only so many shots you can take of their performance of which you'll see more of in the upcoming gallery, before they kinda all start to look the same so I started getting a little creative and here are some results. Combine slow shutter speed and pan really fast makes for interesting results! They opened Saliva with a burnout front of stage which consumed the crowd in smoke and burnt tire dust which by the way makes a helluva mess of a white shirt and a bald head.
Nevertheless when you have this guy finally singing his lungs out right in front of you and this crowd at your back you have to be thankful for the opportunity to work such an event. Looking forward to keeping in touch with all the wonderful folks I've met and hoping they keep Digital Storm Photography in mind for future photographic opportunities!
