candid photo. she looked so nervous compared to her band mates. actually the girl in front was even worse, with her eyes closed (in the uncropped photo), and the girl behind looked pretty nervous as well (everyone else was chatting, flirting etc) but the composition didn't work well with all three in the photo.

I really enjoyed this photo. I do recommend you try and keep somwhat of a shorter title and let the photo do the talking. Congrats on a very fine photo!

did u try to cut out the guy with the glasses? I find it would make one look right at the girl and make her the focuspoint of the image, nice job with the leading line in the hats b.t.w. good luck

I really like this photo a lot. To me, what seperates this from a snapshot is that there is only ONE face totally captured. Good job of slightly soft focus too. 10

The title is too long. Should have used: Butterflies Before the Show. Good picture however.

Expressionless girl... does not display any emotions at all. She's just staring off into space

Beautiful colour. It is a pity that the girl on the front row is looking away from the camera. It seems to spoil things for me and I am not quite sure what emotion is being portrayed. Perhaps you could have made this more apparent in the title.

Nice bright colors and good job of focusing and framing this. Also, good job capturing apprehension. Have to give you a 10 on this!
