As a music-lover, I couldn't agree more. As a photographer, I like the contrats of the glitter, the blue-collar shirt, and the guitar versus the suit, rose and 'necktie' -- WOW! Eloquent.

Weird image. The guitar dressed up in a suit is really creative. I get the noose thing, but I'm a little confused about the bright light there...I'll assume it's intentional, but I don't know what it's trying to say. And in this sort of story photo it seems like it ought to be saying something. I don't like the purple sequined background...I think it should either be more out of focus or be a plainer black or dark grey or something. If this were my photo I probably would have titled it "Napster" :-)

I really like the lighting, the noose, the rose etc. But I can't see why you have the guitar neck - what has a guitar got to do with a picture that, I think, would be ten times better without it.. I would have given ten for this without the guitar - hope I'm not being to pedantic here. Having said that I still give it 7...

Well staged and very interestingly lit. But badly over exposed below the noose. And I'm not sure I understand your concept. But that's my problem - not yours.

Not sure exactly how this relates to the corporate world, but it's very creative. Just too much glare on the shirt

Interesting shot, but I am trying to fit it to the challenge. It is there, but a stretch for me. I do like the shot though! Great for a "music to die for" challenge... Creative lighting...

Wow, very, very cool. I know you have some sort of message with the bright light below the "necktie", but to me, it's too bright. Fabulous idea! This reminds me of a musician friend of mine. He works for $$$, but only when he HAS to. I want to give this a 10, but the light drags me down to 9. Swash
