Bands Instore Performances (C&C wanted)

[stellarbeam]

Has been a few months since I've been on here and thought I'd post some recent shots as I'd like to get honest opinions.

I'm finding my main problem at the moment to be croping/editing of the photos. I'm quite rubbish at it:shake: Unfortunately I don't have photoshop. All I have is paint shop and I don't really know how best to use it's functions.

Anyway onto the photos:

Vampire Weekend

Vampire Weekend - Not in focus, but for some reason I like

Get Cape. Wear Cape. Fly.

Get Cape. Wear Cape. Fly.

I'm hoping those pics don't show up too huge. I'm sure someone will tell me if there is a problem.

I have a load more here> http://viewmorepics.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewAlbums&friendID=226557578 if anyone wants to see. I didn't want to post to many, or make multiple posts.

I use Paintshop - it does everything I need. Unfortunately most books and magazines and websites assume everybody has Photoshop. If you want to know anything specific, just ask.

The shots are ok - in fact no. 1 is excellent, and would be superb if the mike was just the other side of his mouth! The other 3 are a bit soft, by maybe can be sharpened. Lighting in all of them is very good.

Thank you. I think all of these (with maybe the exeption of the last one) were taken without flash. Luckily the lighting at these instores is very varied throughout any set, so although a load of photos will come out a strange green colour, some will come out quite nice.
