Ed in Red

This is shot emerged deep from my archives.

There are photographs where you don’t need to see the face. This is one of them. I shot it from the side of the stage, Ed is bathed entirely in red light — guitar in hand, silhouette unmistakable. No name required. Just the profile, the posture, the instrument. Anyone who ever watched Ed play knows exactly who this is the moment they see it. Ed in Red is not a document of a performance. It’s the feeling of one — the heat of the lights, the singular presence of one of the greatest guitarists who ever lived, caught in a single frame from a vantage point I was very fortunate to have and now your's to enjoy.
