just a couple i took a while ago at a metallica concert, i think the 2nd one is ruined by his arm any other tips are appreciated!

I really like the first one, but I think it could possibly benefit from a tighter crop. Also maybe a b&w or even sepia conversion? I see it as one of those concert posters like that then.

The second one make it look like he's about to give a big speech à la Charlie Chaplin in The Great Dictator, i.e. not the most flattering of poses.

1st one is really good. How did you get back/side stage??

2nd is still not bad but agree, the arm does obstruct the image. Great background though.

Well done!

first one looks awesome. I can imagine the second one with a caption..

thanks for the input!

i work with bands, building the stages and then setting up their gear etc

1st one is good - i agree that it could do with a crop if the size of image allows it for the size of final print that you would like to get out of it (assumes you want to print?). nice one.

Both need a dose of contrast to get them right.

Right as rain.

Now, more, more!

did the tour manager see you taking pictures from the side of the stage? i know i've been given out to by many a stage manager and that's even when I'm working directly for the band taking photos

i love the first one -- the second ones doesn't work for me , he looks as old as i feal today -- but again the first one is class

Green isn't my best colour. I even have the metallica star tattoo'd on my shoulder. First is class, got any more?

judomick · 11-09-2007 6:47am

i know some are a little out of focus, ill have a look later through the rest for better ones!

judomick · 11-09-2007 7:07am

he was standing beside me! the crew were really cool, apart from the guitar tech who was pissedoff so many people were asking him for plectrums, some of which have fetched quite a few quid on ebay!

WOW! These are totally amazing shots. How do I get a job like yours? Think I'd actually work for free!!
