I think that's a ~great~ shot! Love the tilt (jazz is kind of a tilted music, IMHO <g>). Great expression on the sax player's face, but I really really like the expression on the bassist's face. You really caught a moment there! Exposure is terrific (especially with that pesky spot in there - but it really adds to the atmosphere). You worked around the mic stands nicely. I like just about everything about it. The grain doesn't bother me (it's a shot that is helped by a bit of grain, IMHO - adds to the atmosphere), but you may want to try Fuji Neopan 1600 and push it to 3200. I've used it to shoot concerts, and it's worked well for me. cheers, frank -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson
