Very nice set Damian #s 1&2 especially

[german]

cheers mate, they were hard band to shoot. Was lucky enough to get as many as I did.

[Suicidenote]

All very nice, have to say #1 is my fav.

[karinne]

The colors in #1 are just awesome! They fit so well.

#2 and 3 are just great. The focus is at the right place too!

And well... they're all great really! :D

[narlus]

yeah, very good set. 1 and 3 are my picks, but they are all good...i like 3 w/ the tongue; nice capture. 2 has great detail but is a bit too much up the nose perspective-wise.

just curious as to yr decision to shoot @ ISO 500, but limit the shutter speed to 1/80th. regardless, the shots are nice and sharp.

Got more anywhere? See, they're in the spirit of Halloween. Oh wait...

:D

Loving #2 and 3. The up profile shots are awesome!

There is so much going on all over the stage you don't know where to point your lens in the three songs you have. I'm not sure what it was like in Brisbane but there were a heap of photographers in the pit (including numpties who were more intent on rocking out and getting in everyone's way rather than taking photos with their compacts or mobile phones - yes there was a guy with a photo pass shooting with a phone).

I think i may know who that was..alot of guys from the machine head forums had access to pit i think..drunken shenanigans..

There was about 5-6 people shooting in bris, I just didn't know where to look

Those are awesome. Love the second one :)

[René Damkot]

Very nice set. #2 and 3 get my vote.
Last one has some fun stuff going on in the purples, but that might also be my laptop screen...

[german]

rene, what do you mean fun stuf fin the purples?

[narlus]

in #8, look @ the crotch of his pants. see how the purple kind of 'blocks up' into solid tones? this happens w/ deep blues too a lot.

[René Damkot]

Jep. That's what I meant.
In LR, either use the TAT to desaturate that particular color or, if you use LR2 or ACR 4.5, try the "camera beta" profiles ;)

Also, I'd lay a bit lower on the "post crop" vignette (or whatever you used in PS); some borders go "gray" now.
That's different from "dark", but Adobe didn't get that one right either in LR2.

1 & 3 are my favourites of an extremely good set.
