That's probably because I really love this band, and I tried my best to capture those moments. (not the one with drummer

) I think the most professional photographers do it just for money, they're not really enjoying the music standing there in a first row

Though I know someone who does! http://www.u2.com/news/title/trying-to-let-the-moments-speak-for-themselves

Not the best photo, but I liked this one the most of this summer. Since it perfectly shows the atmosphere

The night shot i make each year

The boulevard

And taken from the taxi from Belgrade, on the way to the Nikola Tesla Airport:

None of the photos above where editted, just some cropping and NEF -> JPG conversion

The following needed some exposure correction since my cam was on -1 stops :/ Too bad I didnt notice, the shot is awesome just a bit grainy now. It is taken from one of the tops off Galicica http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gali%C4%8Dica . Around 1950m above see level. However the lakes are > 700m sea level as well.

This photo was completely fucked up (same story about incorrect camera settings from the night before). Photoshop auto leveling / exposure / temperature made this of it. Will try to make it better by myself later. We see Lake Ohrid on the other side of the mountain. If you look closely you will see Ohrid, if you look more closely the airstrip can be seen as well!

The gray around the mountains is not smog, I am not sure what it is. It disappeared around 11 o'clock. The photos were made earlier in the morning. Probably some atmospheric phenomenon. A polarising filter probably wouldve helped :/

Nice photos, Chris

A shame that the last one didn't turn out as you'd hoped. It looks great until you fall over the other side of that lovely green grass. Then it goes a bit dull. The sunset photo looks great

I'm glad you had a good trip

Yeah the dynamic range in the background is crappy, the trees look black while they were vivid green. Will try to recover it using photoshop. Normally my cam has quite some dynamic range to play with. So perhaps not all is lost...

Things in the distance are better, but the foreground suffers
