Slash is totally cut and we got those two nobodies that most fans don't know who they are and don't care to know. And a black and white filter to cover imperfections like bad light and bad focus. Also, there's too much black going on as to saturate it with more darkness Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaskingApathy Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 There's too many photos of Fernando and family in general on their social media. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alja Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 Before dissing Kat once again try a closer look, there is an object left down, most probably car, she couldn't go further to the left to get Slash into the picture. Most probably Kat was just passing around and saw an opportunity to take a quickie. Axl slouches, and, as he aged, his shoulder muscles went more robust, he is not long-necked skinny youngster anymore. So it became kinda difficult to get a photo with him having long neck. He must have had been aware of photographying and slightly pose with chin up and without that scarf, but it's quickie, after all... Photo is then contrasted (nothing you couldn't do in old-school lightroom) and selectively additionaly shaded a bit most probably, but not much. Buy a ticket, go front row and try possibilities and your photo abilities, okay? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post janrichmond Posted October 21, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted October 21, 2018 @Alja Give it a rest, the photo looks doctored. Kat is not a great photographer. If her work is posted then she must expect to be critiqued. 7 hours ago, Alja said: Buy a ticket, go front row and try possibilities and your photo abilities, okay? i did. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really like photographing, it makes me focus on different aspects of the show and personalities, I also use mine (raw) for a "reality reference" sometimes; the thing I really love on Kat's photos is her observing abilities and the relationship she can establish, the sense of people's flows; you can have thousands technically great, detailed, color overflowing photos with currently available technique, but few photographers have this ability to kind of catch the air around a person, also kind of make them look dignified; I am talking not just about GNR, but also other people in her portfolio. You cannot fake it or make it up in graphic program, it's how deeply someone allows the photographer to look inside. Those people are photographed by many, after all, but just few photographers can catch that sparkle. This one, when I look at it longer, that one also looks "resuscitated" from blur. It would look awful in colors. There's that charming smile that matters. Still, it's not some anonymous model who you can doctor to the extent no one would recognize her on the street. As a pro, Kat has to maintain recognizable style, too. I don't love all her photos, of course, but most are good and some are of my very favorites.

Alja Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 By the way, there's other photographer with free pass, there are other photos apart from Kat's ones which could be done only from the gap between the stage and fans - I saw a man taking pictures there during my shows. They are standard good quality rock photos, but don't have that extra feeling Kat's ones often have. Guns din't have photo-pit like most other bands do for the tour, as far as I know.

Popular Post Lio Posted October 21, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted October 21, 2018 Kat is a shitty photographer with only boring black and white pics of the band. I've seen far better pics by fans from front row. She is alsof the most photographed photographer ever If we're talking about privileged people in front of the rail, Jarmo does nice pics too. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dgnr Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 I mean you can have your preferences photography wise and I really think Kat takes some good shots - to each their own. But she's an average photographer, c'mon. If there's anything her pics lack is soul. All this 'catch the air around a person', Kat doesn't have it. And this particular pic doesn't even look that it was taken by a professional - not in colour, composition, framework, balance or even focus. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaskingApathy Posted October 21, 2018 Share Posted October 21, 2018 Kat's lucky that she was in the right place at the right time to be selected to travel with them and take photos. She seems nice but she should always remember that. Kind of like some other people in that entourage... 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Tori72 Posted October 21, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted October 21, 2018 Maybe it is not Kat but the band. Boringness.-wise There aren’t any more together-times and smiles to take pics of. Aaaaalso Nando, Vanessa and a half-car are always around and all Kat can do is do a quick unfocused snap.

I agree with this. I dont think she could say no the band as they are walking onstage " sorry guys can you lineup next to one another so i can take a quick snap" . I think she is trying to make do with whatever boring scenario the band present her with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post killuridols Posted October 23, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted October 23, 2018 Geez.. Great photographers are great for a reason. Great photographers have an immense creativity and they are big observers. Do you think great photographers who won international photography prizes 'had it easy' during a war, a revolt, or any other spontaneous situations where no one can control any variables? The boring one is Kat. Not only that, she's also lazy. She takes the same picture for all of her clients. Check GN'R pics and ACDC ones, they are just the same.... so lazy, boring, non-creative and conforming. A total fiasco. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
