Lovely picture of the musician's hands. Excellent lighting. IMO, I think the picture would be more complete if you would have included the musician's face as well. 8

This was a challenge to shoot. Drove 35 miles on a hazy day with the heat index of 110. Sky was milky white. I had to find a mall parking lot where I could get the steeple and antenna to line up correctly. From three quarters of a mile I zoomed my 75-300 full and took about 50 shots.
I got slammed for the sky color. I love the comment that a few fluffy clouds would have been nice. We haven't had a fluffy cloud here in two weeks. In fact, the first rain here was three hours after the deadline on the rain challenge. Now I'm getting slammed on doing a drought theme. hehe, ain't life a hoot. There are days I wish I lived in Iceland!

"Be careful with your equipment this week as you search out your best photo of rain." Sorry, but I don't see any rain here. It's a good shot and I love the colors & focus, but...

This is a good capture. The lighting is pretty good, however, it maybe is a little strong on his right hand, IMO.

I'm pretty certin the negative approach isn't going to wash with the voters, but it is of course tricky to be original and different and if you're somehwere without rain ...

I'm not wholly sure about your composition here - the framing seems somewhat arbitrary, with the shapes of those dried leaves not working together for you. The angles and shapes I think need to be more coherent in their overall effect - this seems too random. Great blue, though.
