There may be a few of us who remember Jeannie Lewis (Free fall through featherless flight). She was recently down our way. She is just a great singer. It was great to see (and hear) her up close

I like this shot alot... however I think it's a classic case to go B&W to remove distracting colours and focus on the artist. I hope you don't mind but here's a black an white version which I think works well with your image. Holla if you would like me to remove it.

I agree with Mark the B&W really works in this case.

Thanks for this. I think the B&W works well. I did a few B&W conversions from the National Folk Festival at canberra last year and liked them. Hope to get there this easter and I hope my D70 is fixed by then (Maxwell...help me).

Shakey, I have to agree with the others the black and white version works well.

Thanks Shakey
I always thought she should have been more famous then she was. She's just an incredible singer.
