This image totally blows me away! From the black and white to the composition to the brilliant use of negative space, this is a winner. I'd give you a 12 if I could.

Back again, sorry, I just can't stop looking at it, I LOVE it!

Love this shot. 9 Who is it. Looks like a young Zak Wylde. I love shooting concerts. If interested, check out my webshots webpage. ALOT of concert photo's in there. I think you will like it. If you haven't seen it, I shot the Joe Satriani photo called "Surfing with the Alien."

Cool shot. Love the way you have captured the motion and atmosphere. Framing is great and B&W conversion works really well for the shot. Great job.

Excellent, dynamic shot deserving of a high placing. You're in the right place for a great composition and there's some real energy in that hair. Great.

Lots of vibrancy in this image.. characterised beautifully by the angle of shot.
I can almost hear the guitar "growl."

Personally i would have liked to see his hole head but maby there is a reason why you croped it like that. Really cool shot!

This is a great shot... very intense. You have successfully relayed the power that is a part of heavy metal music. This also makes a great black and white... great shot :) = 10

No fuss title.
Quality work. Good composition and cropping. The blur in the hair really adds movement.
