After metal fest I'm going to save up some cash for a new flash that wash out so many of my pictures. Most of my pictures are from bands my friends are in. I'll have pics from Shroud up later, I kinda messed up.

seeing as I fancy myself as some sort of photographer person...
1) your flash is blowing out your images. turn down your flash. though this could be from your focusing too... but I would definitely say tone it down a notch or two.

2) I thought from the rob-teratism that you were shooting film... but I guess you are just shooting with a digital (looking at the other images). I would suggest turning down or off the color saturation unless you are in a warm color enviroment. I think you camera is bumping up the punch of greens and blues. this could also be high saturation with some weird white balance, I quess... though your white look fine.

3) learn how to post process in photoshop (something I'm learning now)

besides that have fun learning.

I wish I could have stayed for DitK, I borrowed the CD from Dan, they're fucking awsome!!!

Your pics are great, I do agree with Aaron, your flash is totally blowing out the pictures (hence why skin tones are poreclin white) you can fix this by either:
A.) Turning down the flash (like aaron suggested)
B.) Change the F-Stop you're using, to allow less light through the lens

As far as post processing (this goes to both you AND Aaron) if you have questions, I've got answers, I work for a School Portraits company doing photo editing / post processing / retouching.

other then your pictures being blown out, you've got some great shots here, keep up the good work man!

Yeah, the pictures are really bright, but really good! I would say you have some talent.

I love that picture of Brian!

Yah, my brightness has been the object of frustration. I've been trying to figure out how to turn my flash down, but I dunst really know. I actually take pictures with a film camera. Maybe the little auto contrast and level adjustments the software I use throwed you off. If people want more pictures for their bands or something I could post them, or you could AIM me at LizardSkinBusko

Yeah I was just thinking a little over bright, but they are good shots. Lots of chaos.

if it's film... how do the prints look?
are they over blown?

I tried to touch them up in photoshop... but you would need to do a little more that I was willing to do to make the over blown parts clearer.

Slightly less blown in the prints. But I have a messed up monitor, that is overly bright, and if I try and adjust it, it shuts off...so they are probably the same on screen.
