Concert:: Protest The Hero

[Raphy]

1st time shooting at the sound Academy, downtown Toronto... nice venue. Great show, some highlights were as follows: shoes flying onstage, coins flying on stage, a crowdsurfer fell onto the stage and left with a bleeding ear, a fight broke out and one guy got punched out unconscious, and i got kicked in the head by a crowdsurfer. All things considering, a good show!

Here are some shots of "Protest The Hero" ...

You did an excellent job for a first time Concert Shoot Raphy,
too bad people go stupid at these things, why they throw stuff is beyond me :dunno

Lucky you didn't get badly hurt, some of those concert crowds can really get out of hand.
You coped with the stage lighting very well, all up an excellent series :clap
.... Skippy :D

Yes, a very nice series. I like the different lighting effects you captured. Thanks for sharing.
