Thanks for the replies - always nice to know somebody else enjoys what's on the screen!
Since discovering that the volume - sorry - brightness of the cellphone can be pushed upwards, it has become slightly more easy to see what's being shot; however, regarding the fish, I took two shots (so daring!) and even then, the area I covered wasn't particularly accurate despite my thinking I could see the target a little bit better. The main difference between the two is that for the first shot I crouched, whereas for the second I deposited the bottom of my Levis onto the concrete and felt more grounded...
However, these after-lunch walks do avoid indigestion.
There's some more live jazz this afternoon from the old band I used to shoot last year - the venue is now outside under some trees, and so I expect the light to suck because of shadows on faces, but maybe that'll add something rather than detract? There are some really big musical names playing, on and off, within the loose combination. One is the harmonica player (a multi-instrumentalist) who is German and Berlin-based. His name is Peter Schiller/Schirmer or something similar (I lost his ID that he gave me but I did look him up at the time and he does a lot of arranging for orchestras and film and tv; there's also a Scottish singer - Carol Kidd, MBE (lots of stuff on Youtube) who has a wonderful voice but I have never shot her. That's because of her age, but I saw her on Thursday evening and asked if she'd mind my shooting and she said no problem. If she's there today, I shall have a bash at getting something. Trouble is, insofar as women go, I have this conditioning thing about not wanting to show anything less than what's flattering. I suppose it's a mark from the past, but there it is. How I wish I could actually photograph the music! I was on the verge of tears last year when she sang Autum Leaves to the crowded bar... that's something wonderful: that a name can have no problem singing for free and to a local little group of music fans. Annie L. famously said that you can't photograph dance - music is no different and, if anything, even more impossible.
