Poor musician. I bet he's sad because he's balding.

Comment by BobsterLobster:
Nothing is in focus. Composition is spoilt by headstock's juxtaposition with cables. Good mood though.

Firehouse Humour - Green Tar and Feathers

Comment by Skip:
visiting my faves...

this was my first fave. the thing that struck me about the image was that it was so, well, eye-catching. sure, post-processing was pushed to the max, but, all the same, it takes a great base image to begin with. this is a great example of just what can be done--if you have a strong base image.

this is an image that i would not attempt to duplicate, not in the sense of finding a tripped-out fire truck, but one that i would keep around as a reminder of what is pleasantly possible, if you get it right in the camera.

another thing i like is that this image is two years old, and it is still just as strong as it was yesterday. lastly (and this is a BIG deal), mario is still not only very active at dpc, but has over a 5.8 average after over 140 challenges! keep it up!

Interesting composition, but the outside is to bright and washed out. Perhaps a polarizer and/or haze filter.

this is a great capture. did you try to bring his face out just a little bit more? he's kind of dominated by the cables on the right (which are great, by the way -- really set the backstage scene)

good "moody" toning; nothing seems to be in focus though...

Comment by NathanWert:
IMO, I don't get "blue", I get contemplative before a performance. I like it though. Could be a little more in focus on his face.
