Larry,
Thanks for sharing these photos. It's been ages since I've gone to any
events of this sort... I was looking at this while waking up, so, it took
me a few moments to figure out what "squake" was ;-)
It was pleasant to spot a few familiar faces..
Cf. this old PUG photo:

This photo: LRC17588, is lacking the lower part of it. The effect is
somewhat weird: it looks as if the guy is extremely short.
Re: LRC17588
I am not sure about the microphone that Christine has mentioned.
On one hand, I wish it was a bit futher from the face to be less dominant,
on another hand, - it's a part of the scene, and "accessory" of a sort.
Take a look at the first two photos in this set (sorry for the flash, -
I am guilty of being affected by the fud, and never got to redo it.
Maybe, you'll find this idea useful here.
Even though one of those 10 videos that you've posted recently was
denying this type of affects, I like the way it worked for me. YMMV:

Even if you choose not to do "selective color", try sephia, it might give
that photo of yours an interesting view.
Finally, - I think people here, on PDML, would appreciate if you posted
the direct link to the photo of YOU from that even posted by someone else.
Cheers,
Igor

At the last dance event I went to, I posted a shot of Jess King smiling,
which was rather nice, until I printed it out and saw how badly I missed
focus. I put some effort into doing a better job this time (using the
80-200 at f/2.8)

C & C appreciated, as always. I might even give your suggestions a try.
Interestingly, of the people photographing the event almost nobody was
using Canikon. Nicole and I were shooting Pentax, Scott had is u4/3 and a
fixed lens sony FF mirrorless, and Richard was using fuji. One afternoon,
I saw someone that I didn't recognize taking some pictures of classes, and
he was wearing a fancy harness with two big Canons hanging off it. The
videographer hand a Canon 5D, but I didn't see him shooting any stills.
