I am trying to figure out how many tanagers I have photographed, and I found this one in my Coolpix 610 files!

Monochrome Monday
Taken with my cica 2015 Nikon Coolpix P310 compact camera.
Straight from camera, no editing, no nothing.

Heidenfest 2026 at KK Mills, Wolverhampton.
It’s been 20 or so years since we last saw Korpiklaani. And it was well worth the wait. Excellent Finnish Folk Metal.
The guy on the button accordion was awesome. The thing was a beast, with hundreds of buttons.

5 bands across the evening. Terrific event if you are into what can loosely be called folk metal.
It now heads back to Europe, so catch it if you’re interested in that sort of thing.

Photo taken with my little Nikon Coolpix circa 2015. Shutter priority at 1/60th sec, F3.5 and the camera decided on the ISO.
I think it came out well. Pity I wasn’t closer to the stage.

Live Music.
A photo from Friday night.
The genre? Folk rock cum indie folk and very political. Plus some trad Irish music in there too.

Photo taken with a Nikon Coolpix P310, handheld in quite a dark room. Camera set to shutter priority at 1/60th second. The camera figured out the rest.

The image has been breathed upon in Snapseed, just to lift the light levels and reveal a bit more detail.
I think the straight from camera image was a little too dark and moody. The camera settings were still left on outdoors, high contrast B&W and I overlooked this, forgetting to adjust.
And no, RAW was not an option.
