I have a few comments/questions. Is your girl drinking pedialyte in one of those shots? And if so, why? How did you manage to get 180 pics of no one smoking illegal stuff? Thank you for the picture of the "sluts" bathing, i enjoyed that, even though they don't look like sluts. How did you get the aerial shots?
ah, to be young... geez and i'm not even that old. guess i started too early.
funny that you linked your entire photography website and not just the folder which you wanted to show. large gallery this close to roo is always nice.

I dont believe she is drinking pedialyte.. I took 180 pictures, and none of them have anything illegal because thats what i wanted to do.. Bonnaroo is a huge experience, and I think "smoking illegal stuff" is just a small part of that.. i could go on debating that matter.. sorry I tagged that one "sluts" i guess it was a joke gone wrong, and people (you) took it too literally.. and the aerial shots were from the ferris wheel..
And to the last comment about linking my entire website, not just the 'roo gallery.. Whats you point? I have a photography website, which i pay hosting fees, and put in time and effort to share with people. Why are so many members on this board like this?
^^^ Thanks for saying that. I was thinking it but was afraid of coming off like some kind of prude or PC cop or something. It did make me uncomfortable.
I opted to believe that these were jokes, maybe even inside jokes, on the photographer's part.
I haven't been to Roo yet, so it was useful to get a sense of what it looks like. Thanks, Otchster.

It might have something to do with labeling people as sluts, weirdos, thugs, fags, etc...
in embarrassment, i went ahead and removed those tags.. i made that page about a year ago, and when i went through reading them today i felt pretty dumb.. granted they were inside jokes, and weren't in place to be derogatory, it may have had that affect on other people..
and when i asked why are so many members "like this", it was in reference to the comments of astonishment as to why someone with a website with 300+ 'roo pics would like to see user traffic... crazy, i know.

just that this isn't a photography site, it's a bonnaroo site... so you should've just linked the galleries relating to bonnaroo..AND if someone wanted to check out more of your work they'd figure it out.
It just borders on spam thats all.. you posted about bonnaroo pics but then made people click and search through your site.
just seems sketchy, maybe i've been on the internet too long.

you would make a valid point if i was asking for money or making money off advertisement, both of which i am not.
i am sharing my photos with people, and if you go through this thread the things people are saying are snobby and downright rude.
i call it spam because I clicked on a link for one thing and had to search through the site to find what i was looking for (much like when I go into Best Buy and all I want is a mouse, they could sell me a mouse at the door but no, it's in the back of the store so i'll see everything else)
it's not about making money, it's about fooling people into browsing your entire website
it's sketchy, but i could care less and i think your getting a tad sensitive because people aren't amazed by the photos.
theyre good, theres a lot of em.. what else do you want?

please dont turn this into saying im begging for positive feedback on my stuff, were simply talking about how a few people were complaining that i posted my website opposed to the direct gallery.
this is lame, enough conversation about it please. see you at bonnaroo.

i like to take pics too, and i thought it was a good set of photos, i thought it was interesting that you concentrated on the people and the venue and not the bands .. very few pics of bands which is good and bad ... you did a great job dude .. cr*****

I gotta say... you are one person I kind of hope not to meet at Bonnaroo - weird Yippie vibes.

wow, -11 karma. 17 posts... that has to be a record.
oh, and nice enough pics - always good to see reminders of the show. sorry dude, i didnt post comments - but i was just looking at the thumbnails.
if you're looking for honest to goodness feedback, the pics didn't seem all that special/unique - but im sure they mean something to you - so who cares if people write comments?
personally, i wouldnt have been bothered by the rude tags for each photo, but i know a lot of folks here would be...
