7 is the best...real nice composition. #3 looks like you've focused on his hand rather than his face. you also could have stopped the lens down a bit (you shot @ f/2 and had 1/400th shutter speed...definitely could have gone to f/4 and 1/100th think, and gotten more DoF).

Great pointers narlus, Thanks...

Wasn't sure which way to go with the auto settings during the night...Lots more photos to follow with "Slaughter and Skid Row" postings in process as we speak...

Thanks for the feedback...

actually, #1 is pretty good too...it's tough w/ his hat brim shading his face. i didn't see what metering you used (spot, partial, centered or matrix).

Narlus, it was a complete surprise to me to find the Spot metering work...that's why I was afraid of changing my settings...previously, spot metering never worked...(in other words, I had only the center spot on all night, which never stayed on before)...End result was a lot more keeper's than ever before...I'm posting Slaughter in just a few more minutes...
