Description

This VINTAGE image, double exposure of Freddy Mercury, 1974, @ The Forum, old home of the Lakers..QUEEN, when Freddy was alive, and way before he passed from HIV, was taken with my Mamiya c330 twin lens reflex, and had a cross star filter on the exposure lens.. did my first shot of freddy w/ his fist up, then the second of him off his own shoulder, just sorta remembering where he was.. I used a Minolta spot meter,1degree..on his face, used ektachrome 400, pushed one stop, exposure 1/125@f4.5..available light, all the way..the starburst, did all the bursting you see added..
