Images can be good because they are technically well executed. They can also be good because they tell a story. Great photos often do both. For concert photography, this means that you need to think about capturing your subject in the most compelling composition and the most compelling moment in addition to worrying about exposure. I’ve found it useful to practice timing, exposure, subject matter, and composition separately before putting them all together.
