Paul Carrack @ Atak, Enschede

[René Damkot]

Been a while since I posted here...

Atak has moved to the new location, and now has a bigger hall (capacity: 700). So some "bigger names" can be booked.
Paul Carrack was one of those.
I've put a quick selection online for a review of the show.

C&C encouraged!

Shot with 1D2, and basically everything from 20-35 to 80-200 with 1.4x TC ;)

Nice shots! Well done. I like #3 and # 4.

[narlus]

excellent control of the blues...i hate to see #5 would have come out had I pp'd it.

[PhotosGuy]

Nice work!

[Croasdail]

Cool stuff.... well captured.

[René Damkot]

Thanks all :)

[DwightMcCann]

Some, like the first two, look a bit soft. I like #3. #4 seems cropped a little tight. #5 looks a bit soft. Perhaps it is blocked up in the blues. I like the keyboard reflections in #6.

Very nice work, Rene. There is a richness to the color and tone in them that really shows all the work you have done on color. Bravo. I like 1, 3 and 4 with 3 being my favorite.

Since narlus brought up the conversion, what conversion workflow did you use on these?

[johnstoy]

Good action... As usual, Rene' your composition, framing and subject selection is spot on...

Just personally, I find #2 a little bit less attractive...He's either chewing tobacco, or his teeth aren't showing.

[Nouks]

You already know what I think... nice series, but he's a bit "sunburned" (okay really strange colour but you know what I mean) on #5.

On the posed shot: clean & simple, but I think the lighting could have been more exciting.

[René Damkot]

Yeah, I probably should have removed the tupperware from the flash, and bounce a bit higher ;)

On the color: I think it's okay :p
