Guitar Hero

oof, the title is going to hurt you. It's a bass, rather than a guitar (technically a "bass guitar", but people don't really call it that). Otherwise, a pretty solid photo, very impressionistic, like another current challenge. I might have cropped a little tighter on the right, to let the line of the bass neck run corner-to-corner

Music is reflection...

The lighting needed to be much better to pull this shot off. I've tried this myself a few times on my grand, to no avail. It's tough to make effective. Also, you could have used a lot more DOF for a crisper photo.

Tune me up

Comment:
I have a hard time getting past what an odd arrangement of tools this is. Maybe having the bottom of the tuning fork against the guitar body might have been a more indicative shot for tuning than having it stuck in the strings. Also might have used a little more DOF.

Surfing With the Alien

The title doesn't add anything in this context for me, but the mood is great, a compelling shot.

very cool idea. the lighting seems a bit harsh, and I find it eerie that her other arm has gone missing, although maybe that's intentional to look more like a "human" violin.

There are too many shadows here for my tastes. More soft light sources might have helped make this pop like an advertisment photo.

The Conductors Baton
by train

Comment:
Baton's aren't used in piano music; would have been more effective with an orchestral score...but I suppose that's a technicality. Otherwise, good angle, pretty good DOF, I wish for a little less glare at the lower-right, distracts from the line of the baton.

Relaxing with my Yamaha SubWoofer

I wish you hadn't used a white shirt. Against the very bright back wall, that detracts a lot for me. Otherwise, clever idea, nice execution.

I think could have used even more of this beautiful lighting technique. I feel like you are very much on the right track with it. Nice work!

A bold shot for this site. I'm not sure I like it, but you'll get an extra point from me for going out on a limb with the technique here.
