We were lucky to have good seats and great lighting

nice; is the black background a photoshop? interesting crop. i would say tighter, but i think i like it this way.

[DwightMcCann]

I'd straighten it up and crop tighter but other than that it's a good capture. In general, unless you are having trouble getting the headstock or a second musician or in the image or something similar, having a rotated image looks a bit hokey.

Nice colors, but it's tilted way too much...

I have some of his pics from last month... Didn't post them yet...

He's always that way, LOL. Other than the "tilt", it is a great shot. Great color, can see the emotion!

[Michael1116]

Thanks for your input(s)!
Yes, I PS (airbrushed) the amps, mic stands, waterbottles, and other riff raff out.
But I forgot to straighten!!!!!

I will look forward to seeing your photos when you post. I too have about a hundred I didn't even look at yet. Just got back from visiting family in NY & CT, and of course those pics come first. All the relatives are waiting for their own private CD's!

I also will have Chicago, Steppenwolf and Paul Rogers by the end of next week. I am developing a very serious backlog.

[johnstoy]

Wow, did you say Chicago and Steppenwolf and Paul too?

Man, that is so outstanding...

I'm getting ready for a show later in the day today... I'll eventually get to Dickey's pics hopefully this wknd...

I don't mind the tilt too much. I do mind the photoshopped BG...

Thanks evilmichael (like the name)

Yeah he tilts and rocks back and forth alot. I know I have some more of his painful looking expressions too....another trademark

[Michael1116]

Black? Nothingness?

Oh, that's good... I thought he was just having a bad day with those facial expressions... So, it's part of his routine...

He kept taking cigarette breaks at times too... I didn't know what to make of it... He's probably just stressed out from all that road work...

[René Damkot]

Too black, doesn't 'fit' with the lighting & 'goes into' the performer in some places...
