Here are some gig photo's I took at Warwick Folk Festival. I used my Pentax 18 - 250 and was in Av mode - I think as it was really dark! I'm not too sure about any of them so would be interested to have your opinions. I have not reduced the noise only cropped a bit.

I agree with Father Ted over the Kate Rusby shot. The first shot is to blurred for my taste.I'm not sure about the positioning of the double base player and Kate in the third image. Don't know who the fourth singer is but I would try a tighter crop, removing the blank space above her head.

That's a dificult shoot you chose there because of all the mics in the way

Bottom one possibly the best, as you had already croped the end of the guitar of I would have cropped tighter.

Yes that is slightly unfortunate, I hope that isn't how she got pregnant!

I agree it was a diffcult shoot and I am not at all happy with the images although having said that the pictures published in the local paper of the same gig were much worse than mine, but I still need to be happy with them in their own right.
