Thanks Bob ,

I was pleased with this shot. I just had to use Photoshop to rotate and crop it. Trying to get a clear shot at concerts can be a difficult job. I had to climb up the side of the stage in order to get above the heaving crowd and to get a clear shot. I even managed to get a large wood splinter in my hand in the process!

That is one heck of a good shot!!!!

Worthy of a magazine front page, did you shoot in RAW or J-peg?

Excellent and as Bob simply says "Its got it all!"

There is one thing on here that I would definitley do though and that is to clone out the guy coming out of the singers mouth! That's one reason and because you have turned the image it looks like it has been turned doe to that guy, do you know what I mean?

Hi and thanks for the comments Paul,

I shot in both RAW and JPEG with the K10D. This is the JPEG version, as I just did some quick work on the cropping etc. (As I've just moved from film to digital - I have to learn Photoshop too.) This was the first time I've used my (recently purchased) K10D and I was in such a hurry to put a photo up on the site.

I will definitely go back and do some more work on the snap (via RAW) - the suggestion to clone out the guy in the background is an excellent idea.

Thanks,

George.
