A pleasant 2 sec musical adventure. Can you play something else? Kidding. Bumping up.

I like the way you have desaturated the entire picture except for the hand. It works well in this challenge.

I might prefer it all in black and white. I like the angles and the fill-the-frame composition.

Fun idea. Nicely done. The selective desat works well.

Excellent. I like how you've frozen the fingers in what look like only two positions, rather than just a smooth blur. Selective desaturation works well here, too. I might have removed the capo for simplicity's sake (no one can hear the music in the photo). But, this is one of my favorite images this challenge.

Too blurry.

love the way the movement and outline of the fingers!

OK. I think this would be better without the selective desat. The motion blur already does good things with the hands so the desat is not need to draw attention to them.

This photo would have been more effective if the guitar was perfectly still relative to the camera.

I would have rated this a lot higher if the body of the camera could have some how been still/in focus. Though, I guess it's pretty hard to hold a guitar still while playing it.

There was another picture in the challenge with a guitar I think called "vibrations". But this one is excellent! Great shot and nice editing.
