Heida, this is absolutely brilliant. I love the way you have used space, form and light. This is gonna look amazing blown-up on a wall!

Skemmtileg mynd annars

Flott mynd. Maður er búinn að sjá nokkrar Pixies myndir hérna uppá síðkastið. Var sjálfur á þessum tónleikum en ég er svo mikill kjúklingur að ég þorði ekki að taka myndavélina með mér.

Great rim lighting of the audience members, particulalry because you captured the guy in the front with his hand in "rock" formation. Really nice composition. The negative black space is used very effectively. Good job!

Concert photography is difficult at best. This shows the crowd as well as the artist very nicely. I'd really enjoy a more close up of the just the more brightly lit part of the pic. It's still a 10.

Great capture in low lighting. May not need all of the very left side, Adding the audience is a great touch that most shooters would probably avoid.

We see quite a few "concert images" here and to be honest, I am generally not a fan of them. Generally find it hard to give them more than a 5.

A concert image is very hard to get right. Lighting is often low (or totally blown out). Usually there's a lot of movement. And to be frank, you often can't control where the photo is taken (unless you have better luck choosing your seats than I do.)

So the thing is ... you have attempted a photo with a very high degree of difficulty ... and pulled it off brilliantly. I like almost everything about it (comp, color, levels, contrast if not so much the subject) and it nicely renders the theme. Congratulations! Hope it does well in the voting. (9)

great use of negative space

I think this is an excellent shot. Great for this challenge. I love the fact that there is seperate lighting (different type too) for the musician and the audience who is completely under his spell. Very good work.

A perfect 10 - this fits the challenge so well and is very beautifully done. I am sure you will get a ribbon!

What a great shot! You managed to get excellent clarity in low light with no real graininess or blurring at all. Really nice job!

I love the way the lights illuminate the audience in a different color than the performer. Very nice image. Makes it more than just a concert photo.

I like the framing and angle. Nice negative space. Would have been great if you could have some of the distracting elements above the spot lights.

Very powerful use of light, on both the performers and more interestingly, the audience. A wonderful evocation of the challenge.
