PHOTO GALLERY: Best Worldwide Festival Photos 2009

[mamamaine]

As an aspiring photographer myself, I'd love to have the opportunity to travel the world and shoot music festivals year round (especially if it were for a reputable media brand). So, I'm always jealous when I come across galleries like this. Anyways, these are apparently the "best" global festival pics, I don't know if I agree with all of them but it's cool to see photos from some of the smaller festivals, as well as the big ones. I'm posting just a few of my favorites but there's like 130 (artist/fan) pics in the gallery if you are interested. I'd be awesome if everyone could post their favorite 2009 festival photo (original or not)...might make for a cool discussion : )

wow, these are awesome. Where were these taken and what kind of camera did you use?

They were taken at a German Metal festival in June using a generic Fuji 9MP camera. I was just lucky to be close to the stage. German audiences seem to be a little more placid than many other countries , so the atmosphere was very laid back.
