A shot of the band members of a friend's jazz group at a club recently. Taken with my 85mm 1.8 at f/2.5 - it was difficult to shoot smaller than that due to the limited lighting thus the small DOF.
Very good. I don't know about the possibilities on your camera, but I assume 1600 wouldn't be a real option. The DOF is good and hey! that was all you could do, to nitpick around, you might could move the DOF more to the back having the two heads in focus, but her instrument out of focus. Another option is to move the DOF more to the front to guaranty she is sharp but he is out of focus; see his arm? I think a total blur is all right but slightly out of focus can bother the human brain:-) The background with the keyboard is a strong element and I'm struggling with the question if I like that or not. Don't know if you're just digital, but if you still have an analog body, use a 3200 film and pull it if you need that. This opens a door for nonflash photography. I have an analog and digital system, but when it comes to low light concert shots, the digi stays home. In a nutshell: Great expression, good composition, nice shadowplay, good comp and presentation. BRAVO!!! CB
