Must be a personal thing.  I like 'em, you don't.  I seem to recall a
photo of my friend Jennifer singing had a smallish spotlight in the
background (of course I can't find it right now...).  I had it in
there on purpose, and was rather pleased with the result.  IIRC, you
didn't like it.  To me, it gives a stage photo some atmosphere, some
context, to show that it is indeed a performer on stage.  To you, it's
a distraction.

If we were all the same, the world would be a boring place, wouldn't it?

cheers,
frank
