Took it last week, was going for shopping and suddenly the weather was nice and turned the car towards the desert luckly my gear was in my car

I hate to seem negative, but it seems like every single band pic I see has 4-5 guys standing around in jeans with their hands in their pockets, trying to look tough or serious or sexy or something. I would really, really love to see something different. Even the hackneyed guitarist-on-railroad-tracks stuff is starting to look good by comparison.

It's not an exhibition most people would get a chance to see, but backstage at the Karlsruhe (Germany) opera house there are shots of the different sections of the orchestra that are really creative. I've forgotten details, but maybe the trombones are in a garbage dump (with their instruments), while the string basses are down by the river or something and the flutes might be` in a coffee house.

How about posing these five at a skateboard park, with their guitars? Maybe they could look like they were riding the instruments, or playing them while they were on the boards? How about at an equestrian ring, with horses around? Or even just leaning on a car in the middle of Leeds?

Just a rant. (BTW, the lighting looks kind of hot on my screen.)

Lucky your kid was willing to hold still while you aimed the flash at him! Great capture!

Man he can not stand still, i told him to do what ever he wants and i started clicking,

here is one more as he was playing in sand i was playing with my gear

I'm totally new to OCF, but here are a few from the other day that I liked how they turned out. Any advice or thoughts are welcome, as I am just learning. By the way, I have cheapo flash equipment, so obviously I won't be able to keep up with a lot of the brilliant work on here, just trying to do the best I can with what I have right now.

Great eyes, and the square catchlights work really well in them.
