If you ever get the chance get down to Ole Red Orlando. Great live music and wholesome southern food. I got to see these guys for the 3rd time and they did not disappoint.

My turtle, Ric, always looks forward December. Because even though he doesn't really understand the concept of linear time and the passage of the artificial, man-made construct that are the months of the year, he does know that December is the time of year when @eleanorjanephoto's new Bursts and Goldtops Calendar always arrives in the post from the UK! And since he is a turtle of modest means, and can only afford a reissue #LesPaul (and only a TV "Special" at that!) for himself, he looks forward all year long to the cornucopia of classic bursts and goldtops belonging some of rock n roll's finest players and collectors that the world's finest guitar photographer packs into her calendar each year! . In this post, Ric is enjoying some of his favorites from the 2021 edition: . Photo 1 - July. Ric's personal favourite: @brianrayguitar's 1957 Goldtop. Ric thinks this is the perfect Les Paul with just the right amount of lacquer checking, dings, dents, and tarnished nickel to tell you this guitar must sound incredible. Because it has been played...A LOT. Ric doesn't want a case queen...he wants an LP with mojo, dammit! . Photo 2 - June. Speaking of mojo, @jaredjamesnichols #OleRed wrote the book on it. Normally Ric and I would never approve of a refin on a classic wraptail #goldtop (as you know I regard the wraptail LP as the ultimate Les Paul incarnation), but you just cannot argue with this #guitar...it may be the coolest LP in existence. . Photo 3 - Ric happily poses with the cover detail shot of @berniemarsden's 1959 #LesPaulStandard "The Beast" (and a full shot of this monster is featured on the December page of the calendar). .

Part of photographing a concert or event is capturing the feeling and energy of the space and the people that engage in the project. We all do it for the fans and they’ll always be the most important part. #blakeshelton #blakesheltonconcert #oleredorlando #olered #livemusicphotography #concertphotography #countrymusic #orlando #iconpark (at Ole Red Orlando) https://www.instagram.com/p/CcnoMHjuiLl/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Photographed Blake Shelton recently who performed at his Ole Red restaurant in Icon Park. Great night capturing one of the biggest talents of our time once again. Being able to preserve those moments in time of someone who’s the best at what they do, we’ll that doesn’t get any better. #blakeshelton #blakesheltonconcert #oleredorlando #olered #livemusicphotography #concertphotography #countrymusic #orlando #iconpark (at Ole Red Orlando) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cck-iNzuupQ/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
