haha soz. ill write a proper comment...

not too often do you get the singer crouched and looking down at you in a photograph like that. it almost looks staged. the fish eye effect was very well used here.

dont remember writing that comment... but its definatly a very nice shot.

Very very well done. This is a class shot. I just know that when you looked back on your LCD and saw it you were well chuffed! Job done, great work.

haha actually it wasn't until I finally looked at the shots the next day while editing that I realised I captured something awesome, the whole 3 songs were a blur haha

thanks!

Yeah they do tend to go pretty quickly don't they? I'm always checking my screen though, to make sure everything's going as it should be! Anyway, nice work.

geeewocka In reply to matt-rakowski [2009-01-09 03:02:37 +0000 UTC]

the venues I tend to shoot at I have done so in the past, so got a pretty good idea of what settings will work etc, take more notice of what shutter speeds are coming up when focusing to know whether I'll need to check the shots
The Hives shoot most recently I noticed a few at 1/1000s so knew that lighting would never be a problem

matt-rakowski In reply to geeewocka [2009-01-09 08:41:26 +0000 UTC]

Yeah I guess, but to be honest it's always best to check, especially when you're getting paid good money for it! I've done over 400 concerts now, and I'm still checking every 20 or 30 shots.
