3 Pics from an Aerosmith gig

SidewinderINC · 3 Jul 2007 at 20:50

Ok, now i dont claim to be a good photographer or know what makes a "good picture" critically. but i took some pics on my old Powershot A75 when i saw aerosmith in belgium last weekend and would like some C&C on 3 of them.

This is probably going to be the last big outing for the A75 as i'm after a new compact for gigs (as my other thread says

)

I think number 2 is an awesome shot. The way the light has caught Joe Perry is great!

I agree that number 2 is cracking, though I think it'd be even better if the lights were cut from the bottom...I liked them at first but on further looks I found them distracting and felt they detracted from the mood of the photo. I really like 1 as well, but aren't much for 3...I can't think how to explain why though...

y'know, i feel exactly the same way about the lights, at first they're ok... then they just suck! editing now

Didn't the original have a bit more contrast too?

SidewinderINC · 3 Jul 2007 at 21:46

ive upped it a bit more than the original now, not sure whether thats too much though.

I love number 2. That would look awesome as a poster size print. You could probably sell that one as well?

SidewinderINC · 3 Jul 2007 at 22:43

No chance in hell that would scale up to poster size print

and as for selling it, never thought about it really - how would i go about doing that? lol.

i really didnt think i'd get comments like these heh.

i'd stick my name and the year in the bottom right hand corner too, before someone half inches the picture and claims it for themselves!!

not that i'm suggesting anyone from these forums would, but anyone can browse here without being a member.
