I don't find the background to be that distracting personally. The subject clearly draws me in. Excellent capture Rob!

I agree, maybe not all the background but certainly the guys in the audience. Should work well in B&W or toned yellow/orange.

I like this one a lot. I'd also go along with getting rid of the guys in the background.

Thank you for your compliments. I will try and see what I can do, in post processing. As you can see, it's a tad noisy, but when I shoot ISO800, unless I plan to print larger than 4X6, I don't use any NR. It's not for lack of wanting to, it's that I only have the NR in DPP and in CS2, so it is what it is.

Anyway, thank you again.

Good picture. A small detail, the mike could be removed

thank you! The mic is something I actually wanted to remove. In another version, I cropped it out. This was the "beta" test for the print version. I'm going to play around with the lasso tool for darkening the background a little bit, and then clone the mic out.

I'm never impressed by my "work", but I am becoming at least "pleased" with some of it. This happened to be one that I really liked.

Hey, this is pretty good Robert! If you could tone down the white stripe on the shirt a bit it wouldn't
take away from the sax as much.

Good capture, Robert.
This one might benefit from a smidgin less contrast, so
the sax isn't quite so bright. And +1 to what trenchmonkey said.
Good shot, though.
