 Take at the fair as a black and white shot. I wanted to capture the concentration as she was playing .. but also the environment that was happening around here. It was a beautiful and really hot summers day ... and the clouds white and fluffy on a blue sky.

Didn't care for the black and white and shot... The sunglasses I didn't care for.. Not when it is getting dark and stormy.. Guitar not necessary...

Greetings from the Critique Club. I didn't vote the Duotones challenge, but freely admit I would have voted this image highly. I like the angle of view, the composition and the colors. Even the exposure, though a bit hot, is remarkably well done in that light. You score probably suffered because its done in pure black & white in a challenge with so many b/w shots. Still a lovely shot. Good luck with your future entries.

I imagine the histogram looks great on this shot as it is so well exposed...... your title gives me goose bumps.. she is playing on is spite of the gathering storm the sky fortells.... I would have loved to have seen only the darkening sky behind her....... impossible to mend in basic eding but you might want to do so after the challenge...I would buy an edited print of this shot because her expression speaks to her determination to make her music heard

i'm sure you had no control over it, but i'd have much preferred it if she wasn't wearing the sunnies. i like to see people's eyes in pics. otherwise nice.
