No not bad just.....a bit boring. The images are technically very good but there's no life in them, the word sterile comes to mind. Also for me, it's not because the shots are of a church band as I've seen christian bands really belt a sound out. Slow shutter speeds would have given you some life as it looks like you had plenty of light.

I see... Well i appreciate your honest opinion. If i use a slow shutter they just turn out blurry. I dont know. I thought i wanted clear sharp images..

Well, first I'd move these over the Performing Arts (it should really be Live Entertainment, but I have no influence!) ... you won't get any better or more honest feedback than from Bikerider, but you may a more responsive audience. I'd also suggest that you take the time to link them into the page so we don't have to go clicking on your links ... if it is too much trouble for you to embed (not attach) them then it may be too much trouble for us to look at them. :-)

My criticism would be that you seemed to chose poor locations to shoot from ... for instance you cut off the keyboardist face. In all people photography from concerts to sports is it FACES, Faces, faces! Mind the faces first and then worry about whatever else comes to mind.
