check this out, turns out the singer Seal is quite the photographer also. Many of his images are music related. I really like this one:

Nice image, though quite a lot of noise.
This guy has some fantastic work, and is doing waht I'd really like to be able to achieve.

You will notice though that even with all of the very best in equipment, and being a Professional, there is still quite a lot of noise and some blur in many of the pics.

I might be a bit critical of my own pictures, considering the lighting in the venue in which they were shot.

The more I look around, the better mine look

I do have a line on the 85 mm 1.2 lens to try on the next show.

I think that will help a bit.

That first image is rocking. I like the glint off the beard. I think it would look even stronger sharpened up a bit in post.

Here are some more I took at the Viper Room in Hollywood.



Click the picture for the rest of them.
This was an especially fun shoot. These guys really put on a show. Great sound and visually exciting.
