Basically a snap shot I took at an Xbox party where Garbage was playing. It's a bad picture, but security was mean and cameras were not allowed, so I did what I could...

Just one other comment - I was really close to her (I could have grabbed the microphone without stretching) during much of the show, but before I took this one I slipped back a few people. I was getting jostled about very much, and the lighting was very low, so the photo lacked an absolute focus. I tried, though! :)
You caught her with a great expression on her gorgeous face :). When I saw Garbage in January, at a bit music festival here in Australia, she couldn't take the sun in her eyes and kept complaining, then cut the set short :(. Lucky you to get close enough to take this shot. I think turning up the contrast a bit would have helped.
Maybe my eyes are getting old/tired, but somehow this doesn't quite look clear. Is the focus on her left forearm? I have issues with the background, but I know, it couldn't be helped, it's just a bit distracting. Her face could use a little more light, too. Photo 7 Creativity 7 People 8 total 7
it's a bit blurry but still amazong that you were somehow able to sneak a camera into a garbage show. I'm thinking you're on max zoom here. boy, shirley is looking very annie lennox these days, aint she?
