THE CURE - Reflections - LIVE AT ROYAL ALBERT HALL

+ NOVEMBER 15th 2011 +

A PHOTO DOCUMENTARY

I am Michaël LEVY, a french Photographer living in Paris.

I had the chance to be there in London, 25 years after my first Cure concert.

I was not accredited as a photographer, so i simply took one camera with me, hoping to capture a few pictures for my souvenirs.

Most of these images were taken from my seat (Door 9, Grand tier 34), with minimal gear : a standart zoom lens (24-105 f/4).

Seing them now as a kind of photographic film of the concert, i decided not to keep them only for myself.

Some will say : "What's the point, it is twenty times the same photo!".

But others will observe closely and notice the different colours, different moods, different attitudes, and the tiny details that change depending on the song they play.

This page is dedicated to all The Cure fans around the world, those who were lucky enough to be there for this unforgettable moment, and all the ones who couldn't make it.

This is how a Cure concert looks like, this is how a Cure concert sounds like.
