I love the tiger shot - based on that image alone I would have said Jackie won!

@NatFelton ive tried with such musicians such as B.B. King to actual classical music venues - most of them do "not" allow photography/photographers. classical musician photography is a niche - something a hobbyist who knows a guy who knows a guy who knows the musician(s) can get into and work with at live shows. Either that or the venues that bring the musician(s) in, have a deal with a specific studio already and no one else can get in.

Is there no one doing interesting photography with classical musicians?
