another show from ~10 weeks ago...this turned out to be a soundboard shoot, which i wasn't expecting (but as my longest lens is the 70-200, i can't really do much about that anyways), but as luck would have it i had my 1.4TC w/ me, and cropping on a 21mp camera can also buy you reach.

gorgeous lighting and gorgeous results. 1, 4 and 5 my faves.

2 and 6 have some great action/emotion going on but are somewhat diluted by the wide frame. I would crop much closer for emphasis.

I disagree, I really like 2, despite the hands in the air blocking the guitar, I think they add to the shot. I like the wide shot, we get the blurred drummer in the background, so it adds a bit more context, and you caught the singer at a great moment

3 is a cracker!

you can't really do much but wait for the lights and the performers to do their thing when shooting from the sound board. :( it looks like you hit it at this show!

I like #2 and 3.
On #4, I'd crop off the keyboard on the left; makes the image more symmetrical and it's a dark blob anyway. (In #5 it's okay)

Really nice. I want to have her dress. Oh, and I would crop #6 somewhat different to get rid of the guitar on the left side. I really like that shot but the guitar ruins it a bit for me.
