What's "live" about this picture. There doesn't seem to be much thought given to the cropping.

Nice tech. photo but doesn't say live music to me. 6

Great shot~!

Nice shot... but sorry, I not feeling the 'Live Music'.
08/20/2005 04:09:14 PM
Too bad there's nothing to make it live.

This is a lovely, silky photograph of my favourite instrument. You don't need another comment about the challenge being LIVE music, I guess? Didn't think so. I can't score it as highly as I might in some other challenge, but It's a very beautiful image anyway.

I don't think that the angle/perspective choice is as flattering as it could be. There is not central point of interest for the viewer to see and thus it is a slightly confusing interest. There are good lines however... try experimenting and working with them to get a more dynamic composition

I don't see 'live' in this shot. I see set up studio shot that IMHO is very wel done!

Would have fit the challenge better to have someone in the picture playing, IMO. Nice close-up, but I think I would have liked to see more of the guitar.

not much for B&W expecially when color tv came out years ago

Doesn't meet the challenge

I like the shot but beyond it being an instrument I don't really see this as a compelling Live Music entry. Perhaps if the strings were stroked and you captured the vibration or something it would work, IMO.

even though this doesn't quite represent "live music", I like the composition enough to give it a 7.
08/17/2005 01:26:38 PM
It's a bass, and a fair photo of one - but not too inspiring - to be honest
08/17/2005 11:49:08 AM
nice frame, i like it
08/17/2005 11:29:01 AM
Well, it's an interesting studio shot but not much about it communicates 'live music' to me.
08/17/2005 11:11:25 AM
Mightymite pickups! Doesn't communicate live music all that well to me but I guess not everyone had access to a live concert. This shot is a little bland, for me and quite unbalanced compositionally due to the visible edge in bottom right.

I don't have many ideas on how to improve this shot...perhaps playing with a couple of angles and things, trying to find something dramatic...also, there appears to be a bit of noise which detracts from the image a little.

Good luck in the challenge

Good tonal study.
