[QUOTE="ohkphoto, post: 180532, member: 1573"] It's actually a pretty nice image, especially for a first time. My first suggestion is for future references. I'm assuming this photo is uncropped. Try not to cut off the main subject's feet. In this photo, if you had shifted the camera down a little, included the singer's feet on the stage, you would have eliminated part of the choir that is in blue. For this photo (since you can't put his feet back), I would crop the top part of the photo (back row of choir) and a little from the right (the conductor's stand) to keep the aspect ratio if it's important. Eliminating that choir "blue row" would help the WB I would also lessen the exposure on the singer's face so that it doesn't look so washed out, and add a little more exposure to the conductor. The way I see your photo, the singer is the main center of interest, the conductor secondary and supporting your "telling a story" line. All your tweaking and adjusting should be based on that. Hope this helps. [/QUOTE]
