Justin Bieber, Manchester Arena 2013

First gig of 2013 turned out to be the superstar Justin Bieber, after being told this was going to be a pit shoot, on arrival at Manchester Arena it turned out this was not the case and that we would be put around the soundboard. This was the first opportunity I have had to give my 400mm F/4 lens a run. With the new Pentax k-5 mkii the combination worked really well and I managed to get some good shots, it was just a little to long to get the whole of Justin’s wing into the frame.
