I love Ben, and his music. I am thinking of going to see him soon myself.

The first one here shows his demeanor well. It captures those moments where he interacts with the crowd. I like it.

The second one. I enjoy this one as well. I kinda wish there was more "motion" to it though. By that I mean, like maybe his hands coming down on the piano instead of resting on the keys. I know he really bangs on that piano sometimes. Also, the open door in the back is a bit distracting, but what can you do.

Thanks for the comments! Yeah the door sucks, it's actually just an open hall way but oh well.

Um... when can we see some more??

How about right now?

3. Cruddy stage pic. Couldn't believe it actually worked. 580EXII on camera pointed up and left at full power. Actually my last photo of the night.

#1, 2 and last are very nice.

Left light in the last-but-one is distracting IMO. Nice expression though.

Thank you. Number 1 of my second post, I agree is a bit distracting. The shots were for a newspaper and the story was more about the fans because they are students at DU. So, I wanted to capture as many of the fans as I could with Ben Folds in the frame.

Like I said though, you're right, it is a bit distracting. Maybe if more of them were blonde and not dark haired?!? :-P

They are all great (except number 3 of the second set, wouldnt choose that one). Love 2 of the first set and 1 of the second set!

Oh, and for future reference, next time you do another post with more images, start where you left off...dont have 2 #1 and 2#2 images..makes it difficult to post (see above..lol).
