I had an opportunity to shoot Klaipeda Castle Jazz Fest artists a bit closer this year and it was fun thing to do. All artists generated same positive emotions but they were different at the same time. Very lyrical and sensitive Paulette McWilliams, serious Alex Schultz & Craig Handy from Raphael Wressnig & Soul Gumbo live performace, enthusiastic Eric Marienthal, funky people from AKAGA Band, emotional sisters Saulė & Elzė, always happy and energetic Sheila Raye Charles, groovy and uplifting guys from Jazzanova live Band…

All photographs were taken with one of three lenses: Konica Hexanon 40mm f/1.8 pancake lens, Jupiter 9 and Helios 44K-4. Post-processing made with LR – Kodak BW400CN film simulation. My other project from Klaipeda Castle Jazz Festival.
