Can others edit my Photos
Photos OK to edit
First of all, this "venue" is maybe 30'X30', and has THE worst lighting in the world. The only lighting while bands were performing were a purple and green florescents. That being said, I got put on the guest list with a photo pass from the band Veara. There were 4 other bands that played as well. These are my favorites from the set.

I know it's a lot of photos, so you don't have to comment on every one if you don't want. Thanks for looking!
 
I didn't mean to sound like a dick, I just meant I'd like C&C, but since I posted so many pictures I don't expect people to comment on all of them.

Yeah, I know. That's mainly because the performers were illuminated solely by some sort of purple-ish and green lights. I did what I could with post processing, but meh.
 
Just yankin' your chain! :greenpbl:

Yuck - makes 'em all look like they've got some sort of 'condition'. The images look okay other than that.
 
Holy Luminance, ease up on that slider.
 
Didn't touch it.

Here's what I was talking about with the lighting. Left is what came up stock, no matter what in-camera settings I changed. Right is the best I could do with it. It involved a lot of vibrance reduction, which I guess is kind of the same as messing with luminance. It was almost unusable but they gave me an opportunity and I got in for free so I'm not going to complain.

edit: Example: Yeah, the girl playing bass in #3, her hair is completely blonde, not the least bit red/pink. I feel like I could have gotten decent results if there had even been respectable lighting, but I don't like to make excuses so yes, this is the best I could do at that show.
