Hi everyone,

Last month I took some Live music photos during a beer festival which is held annually around the island. First time I did such a shoot and this is one of the results:

What do you ppl think of the framing, colour tones, lighting? Does it convey the musical atmosphere?

The green tint was done in PP. Equipment used was the 450D and the 70-200 @ f/4. No flash - was lucky to get a spotlight hitting the subject and avoided blur with such an aperture.

Heck of a performance too :)

Rasta playing a didgeridoo. That's something I haven't seen before. Not sure if I like the green tint, personally. I'm just a beginner so I can't comment on much else.

If the green gets toned down, I would love it..its a very good capture.


you're a great friend, but if Zombies chase us, I am tripping you.

i enjoy symmetry in aesthetic, i love the lines of the instrument and is arm, but would prefer him cropped and rotated clockwise to where the hand starts in the corner, as well as the instrument, colors are great, they work very well
