Hey, Mike, I really like this one! Sometimes it's a great idea to move the camera away from the event itself, and train it on the crowd. The way they're all looking up in unison is pretty neat - almost reminds me of that famous 1950's shot of all the folks in the theatre with their 3D glasses on, staring at the screen in wonderment. cheers, frank -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson
