Junestar and The Dig at the Windup Space Friday Night

Bassist for the dig rocks out at the windup space

Getting a few shots from side stage the small lamp gave a nice glow, check out the rest of the photos here

I finally made it out to get some 'rock photography' in which was the main point of picking up a dSLR.

Despite the challenging conditions I managed to get a couple of good shots. I found that going in full manual mode was the best way to get a the shots I was looking for. Going for an aperture priority or shutter priority wouldn't cut it. Also when using the flash I found that it cast way too much light but in the manual setting I was able to compensate. All in all I feel the Rebel XS is a good start but I might need one of those 50mm 1.4" lenses to get the effect that I'm going for.
