The horizon seems to be at just the wrong place, I'd have got slightly higher or lower to maximise the position of the background. Tough exposure, the face seems slightly too dark but I understand you'd be in danger of blowing the highlights if you'd let more light in. Still, I'm sure there's something more that could have been done with curves. I'd also have desaturated some red to make his skin tone more flattering. What's the streak at the top left corner of the shot? Composition feels slightly unbalanced, I think we need a little more sax.

Very nice atmosphere, I really wish there was a little more shadow detail though. I'd also like the silhouette to be clearer.

As an aside, the pianist's technique and hand position is just terrible. The shot comes across as a snapshot... the wall next to the piano looks bad and the reflection of the performer in the piano doesn't work well at all. Nothing about this shot suggests a live performance to me. Composition doesn't do a lot for me.

IMO too dark/underexposed and the skin tone is too red. Shots of performers usually do better when their eyes are open, there's nothing particularly special about his expression here.

She looks a right state, very entertaining. Centred composition seems very unimaginative. I would like you to have gone closer and made more of her, it's difficult to pick out much detail at this focal length and the background is too distracting.

Beautiful colours, and interesting composition. How come this is so noisy though? It looks like you could have used a much lower ISO. The guitar in the foreground spoils the shot.

Nice candid, not sure about the slightly tilted camera angle. Missing an extra something I can't really put my finger on.

Nice moment. If you're going to include most of the elbow, include the whole thing! The lighting here isn't especially flattering to him, I'd have removed most of the purple in PS.

You see arty, I see out of focus with the wrong white balance.
