This is my photobook “Tommy’s World” that I made after Tommy Emmanuel’s first concert in Moscow during Mamakabo fest on November 1, 2008. I took all Tommy’s photos with my PentaxK20D digital camera + Pentax 70 mm f/2.4 Limited lens.
Hope you’ll enjoy it!
P.S. There is no sound during Clapton’s “Tears in Heaven” presentation because of restriction of laws.
