Hello and greetings from the Critique Club!
First thoughts:
Crazy colors, very vibrant. This makes the image very eye catching. Great expression, and the focus on the guitar is great. There is flare, but I think it works with the image.
Delving a bit deeper, for being blindly taken, this shot has some pretty nice things going for it compositionally. I like the placement of him and the guitar, but would prefer his hand not cropped off, but that's a minor issue and surely understandable given the not looking aspect of the shot. I particularly like the roof in the backgroud, however. It is a very interesting element and is placed at just the right place behind his head.
The light is harsh, but at the same time, it works as a decent rim light, separating your subject from the background, so I don't find the harshness problematic.
Overall, I think this is a pretty good example of shooting without looking, particularly considering the fact that you nailed the focus and were shooting a moving subject. |
