Hi blackshadow,

good job.
on the 3 first, I regret you cut the bottom of the instruments, for me something is missing, but that's my point of vue... ;)

#4 is interesting, I like the opposition betwin the attitudes of bass player and guitar player !

#6 is a little bit too dark.

One suggestion: since you're shooting on such a large venue, why not take also pictures that put an emphasis on the "greatness" of the surroundings? In addition to these thight performer compostions, of course.

I like 1,2,3 & 5, but I'd have composed a bit differently.

I like #1, 3 and 5. (the flag image is '0')
#1 looks kinda 'develish'. Nice. One of the few times that green isn't bad.

On #2 I'd have lightened the eyes.
I think I might have cropped the blue light on the right in #3.
#4 is a nice moment, but it looks OoF.
On #5 I'd definately have cropped off a bit of the top and right, to loose the white 'bar' behind his shoulder.

#6 doesn't work for me.
