Many thanks to Alec for telling me how to upload pics here. 

The venue was smaller than I though and it was really good, but the lights and smoke made my pics a little hazy and I have no idea how to fix the cats eyes effect.  So here are my pics.

I wish I got more pics of everyone, but I blame the lighting as none of them came out

Nice pics!  The lighting wasn't exactly the best for photos I must say.  When Rich or Kev came to the front, I couldn't even see them as they were in the dark.

Great pics. I don't know how to fix red eye either. I also need to learn how to do a linky thing. I'm sure I wrote it down somewhere when Midge told me once. I need to put post it stickers on my computer with all my instructions on.

Love that last one!

BTW, if you use Photobucket to host your piccies, it has a red-eye tool built in - nice and easy!  (Have PMd separate full instructions)

I'll have a look at Photobucket options, thanks Alec.  I tried to fix the eyes on my computer, but they looked like aliens when I did it, so I gave up. 

I am happy that some of them came out.  They moved about so much that by the time my camera focused, they had moved already.

Is there a 'how to' section on the forum anywhere? 

Very good idea Offy!  Maybe one of the more technically minded souls around these parts might put one together....

Yup, I have all those problems!  I do hanker after a decent SLR, which would take fab photos, but then it'd be too big to take out, and would probably cause issues at quite a few gigs.  But was very impressed at what the person in front of me was achieving with his big DSLR a the Mandela concert the other day.

Sadly, I think your dodgy eyes won't be helped out by any red-eye tool.  A decent PhotoShopper could probably fix them, though.

A security guard at Koko spotted a guy with an SLR and told him to stop taking pictures, so the SLR route might not work for all gigs.  Also, you would find it really difficult to jump so high with a big camera hanging round your neck

Wow, love those, especially number nine, although evil Richard (no 13) scares me a wee bit!

Not the most flattering pic

As Offy said, when they came to the front of the stage, we couldn't really see them as the lighting was really bright behind them and they had no lights on them.  I took the picture with a flash and hoped for the best, a bit surprised it came out.

Well, well done you! Got some great results considering how bad the lighting was!

Only a couple of photos worth posting from me, including a hair action shot!

wow amazing pics wished i could of been there
