When shooting a music festival it’s sometimes more fun capturing the atmosphere and punters of the event rather than the acts on stage.

I love shooting people who are unselfconsciously wrapped up in their own emotions, much like the folks above enjoying Arcade Fire.

At the Big Day Out there’s also the flag waving displays of nationalism which the festival has unfortunately become synonymous with.

But it’s mainly good natured fun.

One thing us photographers contend with at festivals is the drunk shirtless yobs yelling “take my photo!” Much like the gentleman above with Ashley.

I used to stop and do it just to avoid causing offence. Now i just shake my head and keep walking while they hurl abuse at my back. I’ve no time for appeasing dickheads.

Here’s some photos of Rage Against The Machine at the Big Day Out on Friday. So good. Even if they do inspire such ugly macho aggression in the crowd. It was quite an ordeal trying to leave the arena and dodging the fist fights.

Lots more photos to come from the Big Day Out and various side shows this week.
