First time photographing a concert, what do you think?

[Mkvackay]

The music group at my school got mayday parade to come yesterday. Not my taste in music, because i'm not a 15 year old girl, but I had a chance to take their photos during the show. Here are a few i decided to upload. What do you think? First time by the way..

Shot on canon 7D, 17-50mm 2.8

[erikK]

i really like the last one

the guy looks like a huge douche but it's a good photo

 

[MatRich]

very nice stuff! keep doing these man! if you want to get into it more though get a nice fast zoom

 

[Dr.Gonzo]

the second and third are soo sick, nice job man

 

[WI414Media]

Sick! Nice job

 

[Mkvackay]

Thanks guys!

We are bringing Big Gigantic in april, so thats the next time I will be able to photograph a major band. should be sick!

 

[hollygrove]

dope dude, any musician/blog would be pumped to have those shots.

 

[Mkvackay]

thanks man

do you think i should contact the band directly? what other sites do you think would like these?

 

[juicedrummer11]

maybe the venue you shot them at? you could talk to them and see if they would be interested. won't hurt to ask.

and i like the pics a lot by the way. i filmed my first concert a couple weeks ago. its fun stuff

 

[Mkvackay]

thanks man

it was actually in one of the gyms at my school haha

 

[juicedrummer11]

oh ha nice. hmm then they might not want the pics

 

[hollygrove]

hahah in that case, get a hold of the band. Since they're playing at a high school i doubt any blogs would be into them and i doubt they'll have any money to give you for them, why not let the dudes just have the pictures

really sick man! like them a lot

favorite: 2nd, I really liked the lighting added to the energy of "jumping"

Weakest: imo wasn't a fan of the distance, i think zoomed in a little couldve made it better

overall these are all dope man!

 

[Mkvackay]

good idea.

it wasn't at a high school though, it was at my college. maybe that makes a difference. maybe not.

 

[juicedrummer11]

maybe talk to whoever put on the event? like i know we have a student organization that puts on lots of stuff here and they always make flyers and posters to stick everywhere so maybe talk to them?

 

[Mkvackay]

here are a few more photos i thought were successful. hope you like them and thanks for the feedback!

i am actually part of the group that brought them to my college, so i will see what they want to do with them
