Photo of the Day 30th August 2025.

A rather dark and gloomy (and probably over-processed) photo of the 4 members of a band performing on stage. On the left is a man with a shaven head, a black t-shirt with a white logo, and dark trousers, playing an electric guitar. In the middle is a man with short dark hair, wearing a grey t-shirt and black trousers, and playing a bass guitar. Behind him is a man with short dark hair, wearing a white t-shirt, and sitting behind a drum kit. On the right is a man with short dark hair, wearing glasses, and a dark t-shirt and trousers, looking down at the bank of keyboards he is playing. A thick black pole dominates the foreground, slightly off to the right of centre, with some sheets of white paper taped to it, with only the word "Oceansize" discernible at the top. A row of grey monitor speakers line the front of the stage. Black walls and a grey ceiling fill the rest of the frame.

Close-up of the head and shoulders of a man with short, greying hair, wearing a black cap with a multi-coloured, multi-patterned strip of cloth tied around it, surmounted by a red badge with an image of Einstein, and the words "Einstein is relatively great". He is wearing a blue jumper over a blue and white striped shirt, and has a blue and orange bit of cloth draped over his shoulders, with white symbols that could well be an inverted Eye of Horus. A microphone on a stand is in front of him, and the top of a wooden railing is right at the bottom of the frame. The wall behind him is a sort of burnt orange, with red inside around a window made up of fairly small glass bricks.

Photo of the Day 27th August 2025.

A man with short dark hair and beard, wearing a white shirt with broad red and blue vertical stripes over a grey t-shirt, and a blue pair of jeans, playing a red electric guitar, and screaming into a microphone on a stand in front of him. A long exposure, combined with his movement and the stage lights has resulted in some blurring of the image, with explosions of white light around him, reflecting off his guitar and face.

Photo of the Day 26th August 2025.

A man with a long, spiky but slightly wilting brown mohawk hairstyle, wearing a grey hoodie with some indecipherable blue text on the front, and a black pair of trousers. He is holding a saxophone up to an inverted microphone on a stand in front of him, and is opening his mouth to take a breath before playing it. A bright light is shining down on his right hand and shoulder. Black walls and ceiling fill the background, with a slightly illuminated heating vent right behind his head.

Photo of the Day 24th August 2025.

Close-up of the head of a woman facing to the right, singing in to a microphone on a stand right in front of her mouth. She has short, dark hair cut in a bob, and is wearing a dark top. Stage lights give her face a purple cast. A long exposure with a snap zoom results in this closeup of her face, but also a shot of her playing a creamy yellow guitar, with someone behind her playing a bass guitar in front of a bright light.

Sandbox Saturday 23rd August 2025.

A man with short dark hair and beard, wearing a green t-shirt and a grey pair of cargo pants, playing a bright green 5-stringed bass guitar. His right wrist is covered in an array of beaded bracelet, while his right forearm has a tattoo of a red love heart with a large knife through it. His left forearm has a black tattoo which is partially hidden behind the neck of the bass. He is slightly hunched over, looking down at his left hand. In the background, an orange pole fills the right of the frame, glistening wetly, with a visceral, organic appearance, with black walls and ceiling filling the rest of the frame.

A low shot of a man with a shaved head and a short goatee beard, wearing a black vest top that exposes his heavily tattooed arms, and a blue pair of trousers, performing on stage as part of a rock band. He is holding a microphone in his right hand, the index finger on that hand pointing upwards as he stares into the distance. A large, grey cloth-covered stage speaker is at the side of the stage off to his right, while black walls and ceiling fill the background.

Photo of the Day 19th August 2025.

4 members of a heavy metal band on stage. On the left, at the back, is a man with long blond hair wearing a dark shirt and playing a black electric guitar, his head bent downwards. In the middle, at the front of the stage, is a man with long dark hair with a moustache and the beginnings of a beard, his bare chest covered with tattoos, and wearing a dirty pair of blue jean, holding a microphone in his right hand, his arms stretched out to the side in supplication. In the middle, towards the back of the stage, is a man with long dark hair, wearing a sleeveless black shirt, and holding the neck of a bass guitar in his left hand, his right hand holding a can, pouring it's contents down his raised throat. On the right is a man with long dark hair and a wispy beard, wearing a red and black checked jacket, playing a black electric guitar and staring across to the left of the frame. The left and right sides of the stage are lit blue by the stage lights, with most of it flooded with green light, and heavily over-exposed white lights mostly pointing in the general direction of down. In the foreground, the backs of the audiences heads can be seen, various band hoodies or checked shirts being common forms of attire.

Photo of the Day 17th August 2025.

A man with floppy, shoulder-length blond hair, wearing a black t-shirt with faded white text filling the front, and a blue pair of jeans, playing a red electric guitar. An orange pole stretches from floor to ceiling behind him, painted to look sticky and organic and visceral, with some people beyond that, with dark coloured walls behind them. A long exposure and his movement have created red and orange streaks of light and secondary images.

Photo of the Day 14 August 2025.

Four of the five members of a band putting on a rather energetic performance on a stage. On the left is a fairly short young man with dark hair, wearing a black t-shirt with a white "The Idiot Rate" logo emblazoned across the chest, and playing a black electric guitar. In the middle is a man with short dark hair, weaing a plain black t-shirt and abeige pair of knee-length shorts, playing a brown electric guitar, with a look of surprise on his face. On the right is the bands singer, with short dark hair, wearing a black t-shirt with a white and red logo featuring a skull, dragons, and a pegasus, on the front. He is holding a microphone in his left hand, and is conspicuously not singing into it right now, but that is all about to change. Behind him is a tall man with shaggy brown hair and a brown beard, wearing a grey t-shirt, and playing a bass guitar. Orange and brown walls almost look golden in the yellow room lights, with red curtains hangin loose on some of the walls. Stacks of amps and monitors line some of the walls behind the band. A long exposure combines with the bands movement to create streaks of red light around them, along with secondary images through which the background can be seen.
