The Rolling Stones at San Diego Forum on June 13, 1972
'I was part of a very select group of guys, there might have been six or eight of us, based out of Los Angeles, who did most of the album covers in the late 1960's and early 1970's,' said O'Neal.
Counting bands such as Steppenwolf and The Mamas & the Papas as his photographic subjects, O'Neal was aware of the privilege the musicians had granted him.

'I am very excited to have the opportunity to present 'Scene from Inside'.
Getting one of his first tastes of the rock lifestyle at Monterey, O'Neal witnessed Hendrix cement his pyrotechnic reputation as he set his guitar on fire.

'It was awkward to shoot from below the stage because it was hard to see over it.'
Although O'Neal was particularly friendly with Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young, he also witnessed the other early 1970's supergroup The Rolling Stones at their elegantly wasted peak.
'We hung out. I went to the studio and waited for the moment to take the pic,' said O'Neal.
Joni Mitchell and Tom Gundelfinger O'Neal became firm friends in the 1960's and early 1970's and continued their friendship through the next two decades
Grace Slick (front) and the members of Jefferson Airplane were subjects of numerous photo-shoots with Tom Gundelfinger O'Neal
'I never really found the moment in the studio, but were very willing for me to take pictures at the concert,
'The real experience was being on stage with them.'
Having photographed over 50 album covers in his career, O'Neal is excited to show off his work.

It's been 10 months since she tied the knot with Take Me Out host Paddy McGuinness.
But Christine Martin is still going for bridal white when it comes to her fashion choices.
Currently holidaying in Tenerife, the beauty queen, 23, showed off her stunning figure in a white frilly bikini.

Still in bridal white: The 23-year-old wed McGuinness last June after three years together
Martin and McGuinness, 38, wed in a lavish ceremony at Thornton Manor in Cheshire last June after three years together.
Loved-up Paddy admits he can't bear to be parted from his wife and rushes back home to see her in Bolton whenever he is filming Take Me Out in London.
Merseyside's finest: Martin won the Miss Liverpool title in 2007
Bottoms up: No doubt the 23-year-old was attracting a lot of attention by the hotel pool
'She's everything to me. I could never have married a trophy wife. It would drive me potty not to be able to have a conversation with my partner - or a laugh.
'Yes, she's gorgeous but she's also really good company and the least showy-offy girl you'll ever meet.'
Cool down: The 23-year-old enjoyed a cooling dip in the pool as the temperatures soared in the Canaries

Permalink Truk Lagoon, known as Chuuk – a group of tropical paradise islands in the Federal States of Micronesia – offers adrenaline-junky scuba divers a cool yet creepy underwater adventure in shark-infested Pacific waters while wreck diving the mysterious Ghost Fleet of Truk Lagoon. More than 50 major shipwrecks from WWII litter the seabed, making the undersea wonder of the world the best shipwreck diving destination on the globe. In 1944, Americans launched Operation Hailstone, which has been called the Japanese Pearl Harbor, and the bombardment lasted for three days. The attack wiped out 60 ships and 275 airplanes, sinking them to the bottom of the lagoon, so that now it is the biggest ship graveyard in the world. Most of the wrecks were left untouched for nearly 25 years since people feared setting off the thousands of sunken bombs. Many of the shipwrecks in the scuba diving paradise have full cargo holds full of fighter aircraft, tanks, bulldozers, railroad cars, motorcycles, torpedoes, mines, bombs, boxes of munitions, radios, thousands of various weapons, human remains, and other artifacts. More than 3,000 people were thought to have been killed and some divers swear that the wrecks in Truk Lagoon are haunted. Destination Truth conducted an underwater ghost hunting expedition in Truk Lagoon. While diving at the Hoki Maru, the divers recorded sounds of running engines in the cargo hold full of trucks. Here’s a virtual adventure with wreck divers who explored and photographed the Ghost Fleet of Truk Lagoon. This is underwater awesomeness! We love these pics! [33 Photos]

Let’s back up and show you where you are with an aerial shot taken while flying over Chuuk in south western part of the Pacific Ocean. Chuuk is the new name for an island group which formerly were known separately as Truk, Ruk, Hogoleu, Torres, Ugulat, and Lugulus. Chuuk is part of the Federated States of Micronesia.

Meanwhile during scuba diving in Truk Lagoon, wreck divers must always be alert for other dangers besides those inside shipwrecks and downed planes. According to verethragma, the photographer, this is “Sharka Kahn: A grey reef shark. One of very many in the water at the time. And they were NOT fed to attract them…” Photo #9 by © verethragma
A truck in a hold of the San Francisco Maru at 50m depth in Truk Lagoon. We think the ghostly remains are eerily cool, yet creepy, but the photographer gh0stdot noted, “It was a tad dark in there, though, so it is hellish grainy. I do not usually take photos so deep, so I am pleased to have got anything at all in my fuzzy mental state. Nitrogen narcosis is quite strong breathing air at that depth.” Photo #10 by © gh0stdot
Matt Kieffe captured this shot of corals on the mast of the Sankisan Maru. Besides the massive graveyard of WWII shipwrecks, Truk Lagoon offers divers a kaleidoscope of colors and shapes of hard and soft corals. There are also diverse and eye-catching marine life in the shark-infested waters. Photo #11 by Matt Kieffer

Now for the skeptics: “Tractor & Ghost in Hokai Maru, Truk Lagoon.” Photographer Don Barnett noted, “The ghostly fluid is probably aviation gas that still leaks from hundreds of barrels on the freighter where this was taken.” Photo #15 by © Don Barnett
