Thanks for the feedback Chris.

ISO3200 is grainy in 100% view, but it works quite well in smaller file sizes, always depending on the right exposure and the colour and light composition the camera has to encounter.

And I totally agree on what you say about developing your own style, always gotta keep on pushing to the limits :)

Thanks Chris ;) I’ve shot in this location for some time now. Although I already thought about leaving the flash off for some songs to see what I can get out of it without additional lighting, flash is the only real alternative to bring in some fill.

But it is a nice location to use the wide angle and flash combination. Dragging the shutter to bring in some ambient and voilà, you got your nice pictures ;)

Hey man, I really love the 3rd photo as well as http://www.flickr.com/photos/metalfoto/3788265985/.

Their kilts are great, and they are rockin some sick shoes and socks.

Great write-up at the end. I feel myself doing the same thing – though I’m still trying to shoot big acts. I’ve shot a couple of festivals recently, and though I only got 2-3 songs in the pit, for the most part I am working on composition (not cutting out objects or the singer), as well as controlling my lighting more and more. It definitely is a challenge, but after awhile of working on the weaknesses they will become strengths and set you apart from other concert-photogs. I just gotta keep it up. Keep shootin!

And I didn’t know 3200 on the d300 could be so clean… I’ll have to test mine sometime soon! I always stay at 1600 or below.

Cheers!
Chris

Gotta love dive bars – definitely glad you had a flash, though. Can’t use them at the venues I shoot at (I try to avoid dives at all possible), but they are certainly a godsend when you cann use them and need them.

That first shot is pretty dope. Gotta love wide angles.

hey.
bin grad noch mal auf deine fotos gestoßen… gehe davon aus, dass die meisten mit dem 17-50er entstanden sind, oder? bin gerade am überlegen ob ich mir das 17-50er oder das 28-75er zulegen soll. beim ersten sind mir die 50mm etwas zu kurz… und beim zweiten die 28mm etwas zu lange ^^. haste ne idee?

BOAH, wie ich diese Spam-Spacken (siehe oben) verachte…
Traurig nur, dass diese Masche zu fiunktionieren scheint.
