Got a thin skin? Then look elsewhere. Post a link to an image that you've made, and invite others to offer their critiques. Honesty is encouraged, but please be positive in your constructive criticism. Flaming and just plain nastiness will not be tolerated. Please note that this is not an area for you to showcase your images, nor is this a place for you to show-off where you have been. This is an area for you to post images so that you may share with us a technique that you have mastered, or are trying to master. Typically, no more than about four images should be posted in any one post or thread, and the maximum size of any side of any image should not exceed 950 px.

Forum rules
Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy. So please do offer your critique of the images of others; your opinion is important, and will help everyone here enjoy their visit to far greater extent.

Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature.

Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.

Please also ensure that you have a meaningful location included in your profile. Please refer to the FAQ for details of what "meaningful" is.

Yeah im in two minds about them. Not happy because the shot would be better with out them, yet dont mind because they make the shot unusual. Plus there was no way of getting this shot without getting the foldback moniters(posts) in the way as the effects lights werent that far back on the stage so i had to shoot from really low.

Plus matt booy the JJJ photographer has the same shot on the website.

Willy:

Yes i had a media pass. Biggest gig i have ever shot. Around 20,000 people and the stage was HUGE at about 2m high.

Had some challenging times trying to frame shots but the light was really good.

Yep, as said above - No. 1 is very good, right spot and the right time.

You did well with the exposure on those, i've always struggled at gigs to get good shots. What sort of camera are you using? - they are very clean for ISO800.

There are some great images in this post, but that first shot of Chris Joannou is far and away the best band image I've seen from anyone here. The light and colour are spot on (no mean feat in these sort of conditions) and it's nice and crisp to boot, but the framing shows your great eye for the shot - having the light behind Chris' head makes the image a much more arresting shot. Thanks for sharing these.
