three shots from the weekend,









perhaps the last is a little dark but I like the mood, taken against the sun but with minimal post processing (ie vibrance and saturation and some high point recovery).

Nice shots. Live performance is a pain to shoot, especially if you don't have access to go anywhere you want.
crowds to work with, Low light - or bright contrasting spotlights, and the artists are usually moving.

I like the last one - and not just because there's a dude with a huge beard playing bagpipes.

One of the advantages of this festival is that access to the area immediately in front of the band is relatively easy.
That said all of these shots are taken either from the side (TBFB) or from the third row, again another advantage of a small(ish) festival, access to good seats is easy.

and Antraman

I did reduce luminance noise which gives the shots a somewhat 'smooth' colour texture which, close-up, looks a little artificial.
Better in the smaller thumbnails. in fact all of the AKG were taken at 3200. No flash was used in any of them.
