U2 concert. Best EVA!!!

Got a thin skin? Then look elsewhere. Post a link to an image that you've made, and invite others to offer their critiques. Honesty is encouraged, but please be positive in your constructive criticism. Flaming and just plain nastiness will not be tolerated. Please note that this is not an area for you to showcase your images, nor is this a place for you to show-off where you have been. This is an area for you to post images so that you may share with us a technique that you have mastered, or are trying to master. Typically, no more than about four images should be posted in any one post or thread, and the maximum size of any side of any image should not exceed 950 px.

Forum rules
Please note that image critiquing is a matter of give and take: if you post images for critique, and you then expect to receive criticism, then it is also reasonable, fair and appropriate that, in return, you post your critique of the images of other members here as a matter of courtesy. So please do offer your critique of the images of others; your opinion is important, and will help everyone here enjoy their visit to far greater extent.

Also please note that, unless you state something to the contrary, other members might attempt to repost your image with their own post processing applied. We see this as an acceptable form of critique, but should you prefer that others not modify your work, this is perfectly ok, and you should state this, either within your post, or within your signature.

Images posted here should conform with the general forum guidelines. Image sizes should not exceed 950 pixels along the largest side (height or width) and typically no more than four images per post or thread.

Please also ensure that you have a meaningful location included in your profile. Please refer to the FAQ for details of what "meaningful" is.

Wow, holding a medium format for a concert...

Looks like the Phase One didnt like the pitch dark with high ISO on the last pic, the noise is kinda strange there.

Was a great concert. Looks like you had great seats.

Not sure how you snuck the camera past security !

Andrew,

Great stuff.

How'd you manage to sneak the camera in?

Andrew - who cares how you got the camera into the concert, what matters is that you did 8) The results speak for themselves on the quality of the outfit and the photographer. #3 has brilliant atmosphere :up:

Obviously the security scanners do not know what is a medium format camera and it does look like a little squared box toy :lol: :lol:

I put the lens in my pocket, took the back off and stuck it in my sisters hand bag along with the body in a separate section. My guess is security was looking for DSLRs. I doubt they would know what a dismantled medium format would even look like.

Once the lights went off, i put it all together and bingo.. Shame the back can't handle higher ISOs.

Looks like a serious stage. Great photos, and well done with security.
