Since when are my photos anything other than technically perfect? (even I have to laugh out loud when I re-read that line <LOL>)
Actually, I really appreciate your comment, Peter. I'm still working on the technical part of shooting concerts in low light (this one was made worse by the fact that the lone spot was aimed too low - her hands and arms are okay, but the face underexposed. OTOH, if the face were exposed properly, the arms and hand would have been way blown out - I prefer it this way).
But, I'm trying to at least capture a bit of emotion. Jennifer is a very emotional singer (hey, their torch songs, ya gotta emote!); in fact, problem is, it's hard to catch her with her eyes open.
That you recognized and appreciated the emotion in the photo makes me feel I've done my "job". And, it makes up for slagging my blurry Art Shot. <vbg>
thanks, frank

I really like this one. There are a number of technical defects but the image itself overpowers them.

Another one of my friend Jennifer in concert:

Lighting was horrendous (the single spot was aimed at her body, not her head). I also shot this concert with T Max 3200 (at 3200). I find it very grainy, and by far prefer Neopan 1600 pushed one stop.
Comments are appreciated.
cheers, frank
