I agree with you. The fact that I only found 1 comment to be useful indeed has to do with the technical aspect of it. Comments don't need to be all positive to be ranked useful by me, but I can't do anything with a comment about why this is not sports. I thought maybe people could see beyond the typical idea of sports, but I guess not :). No problem, I've probably weren't supposed to think people would see the picture the same as I do. Anyway, I do appreciate your thoughts about the picture and the ways this could have been improved. Always good help for following challenges.
The tour was truly awesome! Thnx for asking. It is definitely something I could do all the time. Who knows, maybe some day :).

| I love the depth of field and lighting of this image, though the guitar could be tip a bit toward the lens. |

| I don't correlate playing in a band as being a team sport. Hmmmmm |
