Kind of Blue - Not a Setup - Concert Photos

05/09/2005 01:02:17 AM · #1

My mood entry, Kind of Blue

, received a few comments that led me to believe that some thought it was set up shot. It was actually taken during a good friend's album launch, were I was asked to shoot the show. I got to go backstage/sidestage, all over.

A great experience, that I would gladly do again, with faster glass.

BTW, thanks for the comments, and yes, I knew the focus was soft. I hoped the MOOD would carry it a little further. Oh well, it's still my fav from the show.

Anybody have anything to say about the shots?

It was my first real attempt at concert photography, so I'll take anything. Maybe I'll try multiple choice:

A - You suck!
B - Don't give up your day job
C - Wow!
D - None of the above...insert comment here

Too much focus on the wires, not enough light on the face - my eyes go to the wires first and him second.

I stand by my comment... the comments made during the challenge seem to say everything you need to know. It's okay and the mood is set well, but there are some things to improve.
