My first Ultra Music Festival <\/a>was 8 years ago in 2004. I was just out of high school and the only electronic dance artist I knew of was BT (Brian Transeau)<\/a>. I went and had a great time. Now, many years later, I invited Ben Hughes<\/a> to go along with me. We had a great time and here are a few photos.<\/p>\n

Apologies on the quality of these photos. Ultra has chosen drugs over cameras<\/a> and doesn’t allow detachable lens cameras anymore. My camera is included but I snuck by with my 20mm fixed lens for my Olympus E-PL2. Every photo was taken without any zoom capabilities and this is the best I could do. Enjoy and I look forward to going next year.<\/p>\n
