Default Classic Rock Challenge VII

This week I was inspired by a shot that Firemaine took of Brian Johnson of AC/DC fame. A very good candid portrait, if I do say so myself. You can find that shot here Still good at 60

Brian joined the band after the death of Bon Scott. Their first album with Brian was "Back In Black". Boy!!!! What a debut album that was! It turned out to be a huge hit.

On a personal note. I saw AC/DC back on May 8th 1979. So I was lucky enough to have seen them with Bon Scott. I actually went to see the opening band which was UFO. I didn't really care much for AC/DC. But, what the heck. We we're right in front of the left speakers & when UFO played it was pretty darn loud! When AC/DC came out, they really cranked it up! It was so bad we had to leave our seats to get away from the noise. My left eardrum was never the same after that! Those guys owe me.

So here it is. May be a little tough this week, but I think you guys can handle it.

I'll have to give it some thought - fantastic album though. Will have to dig it out for inspiration!

Digidave: It's funny that you chose that album and thanks for the comment.
This photo was also taken the same night.

Default You Shook Me All Night Long

From a Moving Car #15 (edited)

I took this photo in the local town centre earlier this year while my wife was driving. For my submission I edited a copy using the new Picnik-integration on Flickr to make the result a bit more vivid (as befits AC/DC's decidedly unsubtle album ).

Shoot to Thrill

Just a shot of my son shooting a bow for the first time at a Cub Scout event. Next time I hope he keeps his eyes open. Although the busy background obscures it, I do like the fact that I caught the arrow just after it left the bow.
