Manual Exposure #14 - Great Escape Festival

Oh we do love the Great Escape Festival. The home of discovering the next big thing in the music world. Ranging from small sweaty rooms to large touring size venues. It’s always a great adventure when looking for the next superstars. We saw this as a perfect setting to bring back our special Manual Exposure feature.

Our photographer Ant Adams ran around Brighton for a series of special portraits of some of our favorite acts from the line up.

Shot using a Poloarid Impulse and a Minolta 700 camera.
