Here are the rest of my photos from the Michael Jackson tribute held at the Mandela Square in Sandton. They’re my weekly winners for Lotus’ challenge without any doubt!
There were hundreds of people there, and from the looks of the news articles it carried on for a long time after we left, but I’m glad...
Michael Jackson is the greatest singer on planet earth. We wll miss him so much.
what a great opportunity for you. You got some fantastic shots. I love your style. these are fabulous. what fun.

WOW WOW WOW! These are awesome. You get a “feeling” from seeing these.
Terrific photos.. all of them. You’ve captured some excellent images! About the shot of the lady in the hat… in my opinion, sometimes the moment is more important than the image quality and you’ve certainly captured the moment. Although I must say I also have the Sigma 70-300 and I never use it. I can’t stand the quality either!! Anyway, the photos of the dancers especially are really amazing. You’ve captured the movement and the energy of the scene perfectly. Top marks to you J!
Wow – Lucky you to have been able to participate and to get so close to the action! Looks like a lot of fun!

Awesome! I couldn’t help but notice the guy in the background of the pic with the singer who was wearing the red and black jacket. Hilarious!

K, one can see I’m still a green beginner. I can’t see what you’re talking about with the lens’? Wish we lived nearer to each other so we could share notes. Why are you being stopped from taking pics?
Love, love these pics! My fav is the one with the woman’s face with the M on it.

Thank you Jeannette.These are beautiful. I am the lady in the photo hugging the other fan, facing the camera. These are special moments captured so well.
Thanks once again.
You have captured the essence of the event beautifully. Nice work Jeanette! Stacey would have loved to come with you, but we left here just after 1 for airport. Thanks for asking her though!
You have really captured the people/atmosphere so well Jeanette – I love them!
And my fave is the b/w one of the lady dancing 
I must say that I am starting to get tired of this whole MJ hype. Where ever you look its just tributes. Maybe I feel like this cause I wasn’t really a fan.
I am curious though. Where have people been stopping you from taking photos?

I have the Canon 70-300mm. It has been the most amazing lens. Try to spring for the image stabilised one if you can afford it – will make a huge difference.
Lovely pics Jeanette – much nicer looking at yours than the ones in the papers! Well done!
Wow Jeanette these photos are FANTABULUUUUUUSSSSS!!!!! You have really caught the fantasic vibe in your pictures – has given me goose bumps!!!!!
