This is from a Blue Pipa Trio concert that I did. I am a sound engineer for my day job. I did the sound for this show and also got to shoot it during rehearsal, and some during the show.

I always liked the look of these large diaphragm condensers. The stage lighting was nice and I took a few shots of just the mic...

Whatcha think?

Yep, that looks like a $3000-$4000USD microphone to me!

I do like how the light works on the mic itself, but the shock-mount seems a little distracting with these lights.

Thanks,

Richard

I think the shock mount is cool looking in itself, but perhaps it needed a little more DOF to make it sharper.

Nice pic, especially for equipment geeks (like me ).

Cheers,

That looks great, looks expensive even
Interesting lighting too with the gold and pink tones.

Gosh you'd get some wonderful photographic opportunities working in the Studio wouldn't you .

Well done! .... Skippy
