While out in Kentucky I had the enormous pleasure of photographing and traveling with Adrian Ross, the world’s premiere didgeridoo player. Apart from being an incredible musician he’s got a wicked sense of humour and was a great guy to be with.
Adrian was joining Blue Flamingo Events on tour playing for the World Equestrian Games and as part the music I was lucky enough to witness the combining of top class London jazz musicians with the world’s best didgeridoo player for some jazz improvisation. Definitely a special moment. Here are a few shots of Adrian in action…

I have an acquaintance, David Blonski, who also plays the didgeridoo. Here’s a link to a YouTube video of him combining his own beat box sounds with his playing of the didge:

Adrian Ross might not approve of combining beat box sounds with the didgeridoo.
These are both great photos. I especially like the second one with the puffy white clouds in the blue, blue sky.
