Additional information - David Bowie's Sound and Vision tour on August 5, 1990, the iconic musician is captured in a moment of his live performance at the Milton Keynes Bowl, Buckinghamshire UK. The timeless quality of the photograph, allows us to focus on Bowie's presence on stage. His charismatic and enigmatic persona is evident as he engages with the audience, delivering a memorable performance.

This constraint added an element of precision to the work; requiring meticulously timed shots. It was a high-stakes task, demanding not only technical skill but also the ability to capture the essence of his performance.
