Paul Di'Anno in Bolivia

[estrugo]

For those who like Iron Maiden, this is a pic of Paul Di'Anno, the bands' ex-vocals, in a concert in Bolivia last saturday

C&C welcome, Taken with my XT, all manual mode and Speedlite 430EX, trying to learn, I don't know why the red eyes, if the option was ON

Wow.. now there's a name I haven't heard in a long time, but still recognized right away.. nice to see he's still at it.
Nice shot, the green mist looks cool.

Hahaha. Still going strong.
Was this with the cover band 'Up the Irons'? Shot them once in Atak Enschede (http://www.atak.nl/pics/v120) (march 6th, 2005)
Red Eye reduction isn't going to help one bit here (or in most cases BTW). Just leave the flash off. Also gives you a better possibility to 'time' the shot.
EXIF says 1/60; f/5.6 at ISO 200. There seems to have been enough light. If you hadn't used flash, 1/30 would have been about okay I 'd guess.
Next time use ISO 800 or ISO 1600, open up the aperture as wide as it will go, and shoot without flash.

Thanks for the comments, in fact, there were so so light, but I tried to low the shutter speed, but as I was "bumping" in the crowd, I couldn't have a steady shot... that's the why... but thanks for the advice, as I told, I'm learning, and all the help is welcome

BTW, he was with a cover band called "Iron of the Beast", bolivian musicians, they played Iron Maiden songs, and Di'Annos' solist songs too

by far the BEST vocals Maiden ever had.

Nice. Where were you standing to get the downward angle on the stage?
