I will be traveling in the next few days and will have limited Internet access. In the meantime enjoy this guest post by Arash Taheri (arashtaheri.com) who is a professional music photographer and an ambassador for Nikon Norway:
My name is Arash Taheri and I am a music photographer based in Oslo, Norway. For the most part I cover the hard rock, progressive rock and metal scene, and work as a photographer and writer for the Norwegian music magazine “Norway Rock Magazine”. In 2001 I grabbed my first Nikon and have been shooting with their pro models ever since.
Nikon Norway contacted me as soon as their first batch of Nikon D5 and D500 arrived. They know I shoot a lot of concerts in challenging conditions and were eager to get my feedback. When the cameras arrived, there was no holding me back and I shot seven concerts in five days with the D5, and one with D500. The bands I photographed were Baroness, ChrisCornell, Wolfmother, Motorpsycho, Cult of Luna and Amaranthe”.
