Greetings from the Critique Club!

First off congrats on a top 20 image, that's nothing to sneeze at. I'm glad to see a licorice pizza in the challenge and what looks like a fairly modern turntable - you don't have a nickel taped to the head to keep it from skipping :-)

OK now for the nitpicky part. A few hot areas on the arm and in the bg...hmm...and that's really all I've got! The lighting is fine for this kind of shot, the composition is simple and clean, the dof is bang on and I find lots of atmosphere with the very light sepia tones.

Overall good job, please keep on shooting and entering.

Feel free to PM me,

Susan

Enjoyed this. Esp. the sepia. 7. Brings back good memories. I must buy a turntable again and show the family what real analog is all about...

I still like that scratchy sound when the needle first hits the vinyl. Most of the kids now don't even know what that is. LOL
