Poncho certainly has a great following and is eminently photogenic. Nice job ... first B&W is excellent.

I like #2, but it looks like it was overexposed and recovered (a bit too much)?

[DwightMcCann]

Part of the issue is the lighting Poncho uses along with this white outfits forcing one to make exposure choices on the fly that can be very difficult. Here's my gallery Poncho images: http://dwightmccann.com/ChumashCasinoResort/PonchoSanchez09192008.html where you can see many of the same problems.

Nice Dwight. You're right about the white outfits and stage lighting ... thanks Rene on #2. My girlfriend's father had a band, which is where Poncho started his pro musical career. She and his wife Stella still communicate.

great pics of Poncho, he's one of my favorite latin jazz conga players

Love these shots, they are all great but No.1 I'd think about putting on a nice canvas.

Thanks SS and SakeMan
