Here are a selection of shots I took a couple of nights back here in Galway, Ireland of Duke Special. What do you reckon??

EDIT - i forgot to add that all the shots were taken with either a 50mm 1.4 or a 70-200 L IS. ISO ranged between 800-1600.

Very crisp and nice color considering the harshness of the light. Have you read the FAQ?

Please number your pictures next time for easy C&C. I like #2, very clean and I've always loved pictures of accordian players.

Pity about the mic stand being in the way on #1 and 2... Maybe you could crop #2 a bit different to loose it?
I like the motion in the hair of #3, but would have liked a bit more room in front of him...

My only concern with the first two is that they look a little static for me. The subjects that is.

Love the last.

Please number your pics... They are nice photos, the brown and yellow colors are a bit monotonous...and the pics are too small.
Now the more positive:
The composition is interesting, as is the framing... Technically, they look sound to me and they are real nice...
