You've got an amazing eye - your shots are filled with light, mystery, interest, enchantment! The compositions and the use of color and light are outstanding. There's a whole world of concert photos but yours are among the most intriguing I've seen. Congratulations on following your passion - it comes through loud and clear in your images. You may not wish to be a pro-photog, but my premonition is that the people you're photographing will ask you to become one. Your images of these musicians are flattering, yes, but more importantly, they reach into the character of the performer. That's not easy to pull off and you have a gift for it. Some of the young musicians you're photographing today will become very successful, maybe even "household words" - and they'll want you along for the trip. Glad I found you! Keep shooting.
