Thumbs down Live Rock Concert

Hmmm.. Today I would like to share to you guys 2 of my favorites from a Live Rock Concert... 2 years ago! The guitarist named Cat de Casanove from the English post grunge band McQueen! I was lucky to have a really close stand to the stage!
These two a quite similar, but I like both! You guys can tell me which one you like the most!
Taken with my first DSLR, Nikon D40 with its kits!
Thanks for viewing!
Nice day!

NICE! I love the way you used the metal railing as a frame. And the colors are great.

WHOAH! These are fantastic with a kit lens (or any lens for that matter!) I tried doing some concert shooting with the kit lens for my Rebel and they looked like crap, LOL! Good job!

I like the 2nd shot best for sure. Personally I don't care for the stage rails though and would try to crop/clone those out. Amazing for a kit lens, good job.

I think I'm going to have to agree with most of the other posters. Both shots are great! Though I do like the second one best, it screams attitude.

Outstanding series of pictures.The picture catching my eye is nr 2 because of the moment of movement of the musicians hair that you have captured.

Great shots - like the 2nd one the best - you have used the stage well in framing this shot. Cheers, Bernz
