Confidence well earned!

Florence and her machine played a powerful set tonight. Her strong voice was only out numbered by her angelic wit. During the first three songs (which I was allowed to shoot), Flo donned a beautiful cape. She spun and leaped around barefoot on the carpeted stage, twirling the cape like a giant set of graceful wings.

Lens flare from the bright lights behind her, shining towards the crowd, pushed my camera's sensor with high-key back-lit star-bursts. Shooting was difficult to say the least, but it did provide a rare opportunity to capture something very unusual.

Blood Orange opened the show; he was quite a clever soloist with a mastery of vocals, keyboards and guitar, accompanyed by a drum machine.
