Science Fiction Meets Reality: Alien Sky | Walkthrough

 

Alien Sky

When updating LensFlare the other day, I noticed in the release notes that the talented folks over at BrainFeverMedia were on to something big…this revelation has a name folks, and it is Alien Sky.

Most likely my new go-to app for finishing things up prior to posting on Instagram, and making available as 12×12 lustre/glossy prints, is the youngest child in this growing family of iOS applications, Alien Sky, and in today’s walkthrough we welcome our readers viewers to join us on a joyride into this supernova of science fiction flavored iPhoneography applications.

Well, let’s have at it, shall we?!

If you weren’t present to witness Guttermouth tearing up the Knitting Factory last weekend while opening for Pennywise, you missed out on something which rarely comes to life here in Reno, NV … body surfing!

Yes, the crowd was wild, the performers were brimming with energy and a mixed sense of nostalgia and youthful inquisition permeated the atmosphere.  Amidst dodging bodies being passed over the front row into the pit I was sharing with several other photographers and security staff members, Mark Adkins made his way to the very front of the stage more than just a couple of times, always with his big toe curling over the edge as if poising to launch into the arms of cheering onlookers.

Instead of Adkins offering his flesh and bone to the tentacle like arms protruding from the dance floor, this punk rock (revivalist) veteran facilitated an evening of a lifetime for two youngsters donned in Pennywise T’s by bringing them onstage to sit on the drum riser where Alex Flamsteed continued to pound out his machine gun rhythms.  The children and band members can even be seen circle dancing in several of the images included in the slideshow and poster prints available through the links below.

While dealing with difficult lighting cycles and a lead singer running laps around the stage, I managed to pull off a series of shots I am more than pleased to share with the world.  I hope you enjoy the selections below and  please click through to view the full gallery, by way of slideshow.

Since I know a lot of readers enjoy comparing photo-specs, the photographs in this series have an ISO range of 1600 >> 6400, aperture range of f/2.8 >> f/3.2 and shutter speed range of 1/200th of a second >> 1/320th of a second, all shot on a Nikon D7000 and AF-S Nikkor 24-70mm f/2.8G ED body + lens combination.  No flash.
