Rocklite performs at Gloria Jean's Coffees in Lahore

IDIC Photo had the opportunity to capture a live performance of an up and coming "underground" rock band in Lahore Pakistan -- Rocklite. We were getting a latte at the newly opened Gloria Jeans Coffees cafe in DHA Lahore and noticed that Rocklite were the performers for the open mic night the cafe holds on Saturdays. Luckily we had our Nikon D700 with us and decided to stick around for a few songs and capture the mood of the band. The D700's low-light performance shone through and we were able to get some excellent results even at ISO 4000 to 5000.

Rocklite members:

• Rizwan ul Haq - Guitars & Vocals (Rizwan was a guitarist for the pioneer Pakistani band Vital Signs)
• Allan Smith - Drums and Vocals
• Pietro Tilli - Keyboard & Vocals
• Imran Hanan - Bass & Backup Vocals

The band can be reached at rene_allan@hotmail.com

IDIC Photo covers celebrity baker Warren Brown's 'Cakelove' book-signing event

This afternoon IDIC Photo had the opportunity to cover the book-signing event of Warren Brown's new book - 'Cakelove' at the Barnes and Noble in Tyson's Corner Virginia. Warren Brown is a lawyer-turned-baker and has been featured on the Oprah Winfrey Show and now has his own Food Network show - Sugar Rush. Warren gave a humorous and informative talk about his passion for baking cakes and the entrepreneurial challenges encountered along the way.

Here are some shots from our coverage of the event. Lighting was quite bad but the D300 with the 50mm f/18 produced some excellent shots:
