Evening Jazz At Harry's

[Ojoscastanos]

Hi guys, just bought my new Nikon D80 and one of the first few shots was this:

I wanted a sultry, deep & expressive feeling to be felt in this picture. The singer wants to tell his story, share his emotions with the listener and puts his all in deliverance of the song. Telling a story. Painting a picture. And all the seasoned musos in the back are 100% with him.

Critques on composition,feeling, alternatives and how to reduce noise grain in such a low light environment whilst keeping the sharpness of the image are very much welcomed. Anyway, im Leo, just joined this forum. Cheers!
