MrBlue  01/11/06 @730

Could've been sharper, but it catches the mood in a nice way.

UE-Skateman  01/11/06 @798

Cigaro  01/11/06 @824

See Review.

Chango  01/12/06 @092

I like it so much, the colors, the motion feeling, i think you're maybe the photogrpher of the band or their friend LOL. Nice Work

Jay-Dee  01/12/06 @149

that's just beautiful! I can feel there's a lot of passion, you did a great job! It'd be really amazingl if her hair didn't cover the eye... I love the colors, this is a great shot! Peace Jaydo

anibal1285  01/12/06 @189

WOW stunning shot. I am agree with Jay-Dee you can feel the passion, I'm pretty sure that the concert was great. You always make great works... Keep shooting.

metapuppet  01/12/06 @276

i really like the motion feel which really looks like being slowed down.. very nice! also like the passionate colors and the facial expression. indeed an intense moment... i like the the interlaced composition and it's vividness. though, there's somethng about it that bothers me a little. but can't tell you exactly what it is...

eowyn  01/12/06 @405

NOW we are talking! This is like a slow motion scene in movie! This is intense, and hey just realized you titled it intense. So it says a lot huh?

w0lf  01/12/06 @468

great capture +9! She's Simone Simon?

Andrzej  01/12/06 @559

nice mood of light... i like shoots like this because effect after exposition allways is unintentional in 100%... good work ! regards !

Passenger  01/12/06 @604

Thanks for your comments and votes all! @Cigaro: what's often? I just love music, so I go to gigs at least once a month or whenever there's a nice band playing. And I always visit some alternative festivals in summer @shango: There are a few bands that I take photos for regularly. A lot of my friends are musicians @metapuppet: if you find what's bothering you in this shot, please let me know! @W0lf: This is indeed Simone Simons, singer of the Dutch gothic metal band Epica. grtz Ruth

blackshad  01/12/06 @876

really nice capture focus is not perfect, otherwise its great

zaecas  01/14/06 @868

IT IS SIMONE?!!?? Great Maker (copyright Londo Molari), she IS gourgeous! Even without all that produced shots they send from the recording company! To all who say about the focus... I really don't get it. Why? Why why why, and why must it be perfect, if it being as is, just a tad off, it gives her this gougeous glowing aura? Must everything be done to the excruxiating last detail? Sorry, I don't agree. I like as it is. Top notch! Great! Maravilhoso!

Marl1  01/25/06 @758

Very well done! Reminds me of concert pictures a friend of mine takes.. The hair looks very stunning me likes epica love Marleen

Andy--Jones  01/28/06 @889

very cool pic. Looks full of energy.

kylemac188  01/28/06 @906

I love the mood of this. I was at a show my friends band put on last night and its kind of an odd thing to stumble upon this today. It really captures that feeling you get when your letting loose and really enjoying the music. Maybe a shot of the audience enjoying the time would be interesting also, with some cool lights of course Keep up the great work! 7/7

X-plorer  01/29/06 @424

Very nice, it really captures the way she looks during one of Epica's shows. Maybe when I'm doing more concerts with my band again you could make pictures of us to !

OnPix-Artist  01/29/06 @941

Very good Job !!! You merits my max vote. 7/7

LVdesign  01/30/06 @064

I Love the motion in this one ...would have loved to see her face...this pic kinda makes me wish I was at that show!

metapuppet  01/30/06 @457

checked back some time & now i guess i got the answer the compo seem so busy, because the shot lacks a counterpart to the huge amount of tiny details imo... try to imagine some blue diagonal lines/bars from the upper left to the lower right corner, behind the girl o'course this made the whole shot more stable i guess. i know you were going for the dynamic feel, but it's a little overdone and therefore it overtakes the shot. (hope one gets my bla)

flowjoe  01/31/06 @437

great capture of the concert intensity, well done

ogu  02/01/06 @608

Sageon  04/20/06 @349

as a big EPICA fan I would have to say this is your best action..great atmosphere movement lighting and pose...just unbelievable that you where able to grasp this moment in to an image of this quality without loosing sharpness... my max vote 8/8

Passenger  04/22/06 @567

@drowninsanity: yes this is the singer of Epica: Simone Simmons Thanks for all your comments and votes again!
