I shot this using my canon flash EL-5 and R6 Mk II with 24-70 f2.8 lens. There is a pro shooting the same stuff with no flash and a Z9 and I think mine look better because I bounced the flash off the ceiling and that was dark. I used the flash to see if it would wash out the color in the room lights or back ground. Do you like this?

Very, very nice, especially in a rough light environment.

Thanks for your kind words people. I play drums in a band with the bass player who has the green bass guitar. All of these people can play very good music. That bands name is Dusty Case and they open for the big acts that come around. I have been playing drums professionally for 64 years now.

If the band played as well as the photo came out, you must have had a great time listening as well as shooting.

This band is very good and I also play with them and love the way they sound. Some of the best musicians around that really know what they are doing. I try to go there every week to see them. I have been playing with other bands and can't go see them for the last 6 weeks but I'm hoping to get there this week. It's just that good to hear. I really like the Canon R6 mark II camera a lot.

Fantastic image! šŸ‘šŸ½
Did you do any special processing to accentuate that great lighting?
Iā€™m impressed.

Not much I did enhance the darks a tad and the contrast a tad. it's basically right out of the camera as jpeg. The bounce flash helped with the front of every body and it was a real dark ceiling where I bounced it from so I think it didn't get a whole lot of light. I used the EL-5 flash on manual at quarter power I think and I think Iso 5000. I got real lucky with this shot and I'm glad you like it like I do.
