I like what you are doing here, defining "music" so individually. Chances are you will lose some points for that but then they can just go bugger off. The blue is well saturated but the photo looks perhaps too grainy. This makes the aircraft less sharp than it might be. Composition looks good.

Amazing picture - very well done! Though I am not too sure it represents the challange...For that a 7...

IMHO does not meet challenge. Great shot though love the vapor around the wings by the fuselage. 5

I've always loved Robert Gillespie McGee's great work entitled "High Flight." This photo reminded me of it and you're right, it is music. Thank you.
"Oh, I have slipped the surly bonds of earth and danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings. Sunward I've climbed and joined the tumbling mirth of sun-split clouds and done a hundred things you've not dreamed of. Wheeled and soared and swung high in the sunlit silence. Hovering there, I've chased the shouting wind along and flung my eager craft through footless halls of air. Up, up the long delirious burning blue, I've topped the windswept heights with easy grace where never lark or eagle flew. And while the silent lifting mind I've tried, the high unsurpassed sanctity of space, put out my hand and touched the face of God."

I can see your point of view. Take a bump for good measure and happy listening.

While I like this shot, I'm more of a traditionalist and as a voter I took the title of the challenge literally and that's why I gave you a lower score. Good photo, but in my newbie opinoin, it didn't fit the challenge.

Does not meet the challenge.
08/21/2005 10:41:45 AM
this must have been hard 2 shoot...
08/20/2005 09:41:35 PM
great photo...... but a hell of a stretch for this challenge, don't you think?
08/20/2005 03:08:18 PM
Would have been a good entry in an 'aircraft' challenge. But just doesn't fit the bill here. Good composition, and well captured though - I like the trails.
08/19/2005 09:10:17 PM
too much of a stretch - sorry.
08/19/2005 03:48:53 AM
live music?
08/19/2005 01:45:23 AM
Nice take on the challenge. Good action shot. Just a little too grainy for my liking.
08/18/2005 11:20:02 PM
cool plane pic, but music? it's a stretch
08/18/2005 07:55:43 PM
Nice picture, plane would have looked better in lower left IMHO, and doesnt really fit the challenge either.
08/18/2005 07:23:36 PM
Again, I'm not that outside the box. I mean, I understand it and all, but to me, this does not meet the challenge. When I read the description of the challenge, I think of instruments and stuff. Just my opinion.
08/18/2005 02:54:26 PM
Nice shot, but way out of the challenge. 4
08/18/2005 11:47:58 AM
Does not fits the challenge
08/18/2005 01:57:14 AM
cool,good imagination,better than all the other lamers i seen in here
08/17/2005 10:27:28 PM
doesn't fit the challenge
08/17/2005 04:26:41 PM
A little to far outside the box for me.
08/17/2005 04:18:58 PM
off-topic
08/17/2005 03:11:09 PM
Great shot.....

But out of challenge IMHO

(Would of been a great entry in minimalism)
08/17/2005 07:30:11 AM
Are you joking?
08/17/2005 06:56:31 AM
hmmm..i'd say noise rather than music, but a very nice picture - know it's very difficult to get the plane in the pic where you want it, so well done
08/17/2005 06:43:25 AM
i think the only time i didn't mind paying taxes was when i would sit out near the runways at seymour johnson afb, watching them doing touch-and-goes...

great shot. however, i imagine it is getting killed in the scoring as being too much of a stretch for the challenge.
08/17/2005 03:02:51 AM
would be a great shot but I'm voting it down since I don't see the music in this, I'm sure as your title sugguest it has meaning for you, but without knowing what it is, it just doesn't do it for me
08/17/2005 01:39:50 AM
You know, the challenge description was pretty simple, and I quote: find some live music to photograph. If ya couldn't find any music, you could just sit it out...
