This one spoke to me LOUD. This was a "not so great" shot of my two nephews in their first "School of Rock" concert. But it had great sentimental value.
I really liked how the word "peace" stood out so well (on the large drum) in the shot. And then I found the song lyrics that really hit a chord. 1) I agree with the lyrics. 2) the masking of the faces and the words worked well.
My nephews: Trevor (standing and the lead singer) and my youngest nephew and crazy character, Palmer, the youngest drummer in the competition (with the most difficult drum solo).
Peace Now
by: Udo Jaumlrgen

Everybody is talkin' 'bout peace in the world
oh yeah
everybody is talkin' 'bout peace in the world
but ev'rytime I hear a hungry baby cry

I ask peace now show me your face.

Peace now
show me your face
Peace now
show me your face
Peace now
show me your face
Peace now
show me your face.

Can't you hear me:
Peace now
show me your face
Peace now
show me your face
Peace now
show me your face
Peace now
show me your face.

Everybody is talkin' 'bout freedom and life
oh yeah
Everybody is talkin' 'bout freedom and life
oh yeah
but ev'rytime I see the trouble 'round the world
I ask freedom show me your face.

Freedom
show me your face...
Everybody is talkin' 'bout peace in the world
oh yeah
Everybody is talkin' 'bout peace in the world
oh yeah
but ev'rytime I see a young soldier die

I ask peace now show me your face.

I love the "can't you hear me" scrawled from the heart, beat from the drums. It is amazing what you can do with a "not so great" shot, 'cause usually something really IS there. You pulled it all together.

Very eye-catching. I can definitely see this working well as a poster sized print.

Love the fonts and colors! Love the blue drums; I would be interested to see it with the skin positive, but it is very cool this way too :-)
