In Focus is a Photo Ladies collaborative photo series that showcases our members’ favorite photos, focusing on a different theme each month.
When thinking about iconic mic poses, one of the first people that come to mind is Freddie Mercury, who has set the bar high with his famous mic-stand poses. Photos of him with his iconic mic grip have become a symbol of an era.
We’ve put together a selection of our very own epic moments in this month’s In Focus: Epic Mic Shots.
