Jared Underwood, Flying On Stage (PEOPLE 2026)

These are some live performance photos I took at an amazing show presented by Backstage Music in Sydney featuring a wheelchair dancer, another dancer and a drummer in a collaborative performance. I used a physical glass lens filter screwed onto my lens called a 'Ghost effect' to enhance the feeling of movement and flying freely on stage. As a musician myself, I really enjoy photographing other performers and trying to capture that feeling of total focus, energy and joy.
