A few images and a short story about Puerto Rican singer-songwriter Tito Auger, performing at Noche Borincana in Melbourne, FL, an event produced by Brincando El Charco.
Not all events happen under ideal circumstances. Sometimes you find yourself in the packed backroom of a venue, standing-room only, with virtually no light, and the stage is a small platform just inches from the ground. With an old camera body with nearly zero low-light capability, the options are extremely limited.
My take: get as uncomfortably close as possible, wait for a stray ray of strobe light that could give me a silhouette, and use the flashlight on my phone as a dim key light. The brightest lights around me were other people’s phones, so I used that as well.
Also cranked up the ISO to the max; a blurry and noisy image of the tension of a guitar string is better than no image at all. All that while playing nice with the crowd, battling with foot traffic from a side door, and a few close encounters with the PA system. (Kudos to good earplugs and yoga workouts.)
Sometimes the photography gods smile upon you. Sometimes it’s up to you to make them smile.

The inaugural Bohemia @ the Park was held last Sunday, September 30, 2018 at the Ralph V. Chisholm Regional Park, in St. Cloud, FL.
The first of a series of upcoming events in Central Florida had the participation of American Idol-alum Alyssa Raghu, and Puerto Rican singer-songwriters Gabriel Casiano-Gabkas, Yaire, and Ricky Laureano.
Although a free event, all proceeds from donations and sales went to help La Casa de Todos, Inc., an organization/shelter in Puerto Rico providing help for abused children and domestic violence survivors.
The gathering was a production of Brincando el Charco, an entertainment company and weekly podcast created in Central Florida, aiming to unite the Puerto Rican diaspora in the United States and all over the world. More events will come soon. Stay tuned!
Additional images have been posted on Facebook.

British synth-pop veterans Erasure performed for the first time at Dr. Phillips Center for the Performing Arts in Orlando last Sunday, July 8, 2018, as part of their current World Be Gone North American tour.
No photo passes or special treatments this time. Went to the show as a fan, with my nine-year-old daughter. I've been following their music for more than thirty years. It was her first time watching them live. We both had a blast.
All images were taken with a cheap point-and-shoot camera. (It's not the arrow, it's the Indian.)

Colombian rock veterans Aterciopelados performed at The Beacham in Orlando last Thursday, April 19, 2018, as part of the current leg of their Reluciente y Rechinante North American tour.
They have been rocking the crowds for more than 25 years and yesterday was not exception.
The wardrobe is always special, almost anything can be an instrument or a shaker, and the best constant is the uniqueness of their stage presence.
Hopefully Andrea Echeverri and Héctor Buitrago will find a way to keep creating for an additional 25 years. (Please?)
