 I think 2stiX would be a great name for a band. Just think of how useful 2 sticks can be. You can make fire, music, and knit clothing... just about anything elementary.

These are two tools used almost daily in our household.

if u had shot this with a tripod and/or stronger more directional light to really bring out the mixing knobs, it would have done a lot better, imho

The border color doesn't quite fit, but the composition is great. The overall gamma seems a little foggy, but that could just be from all the musicians smoking!

too tight a crop on the sticks IMO

The mixing board really speaks to me. The sticks are a distraction.

Increasing the color saturation and sharpness might be useful with this picture. I like the different interpretation on the challenge.

Would be better if the image had more brightness and contrast. Very well composed. I've been dinged on borders like yours and you might to with this one. Image makes you feel like you are in a recording studio when they are taking a break.

Cool tool. Needs a bit of sharpening though, and some increase in saturation will help too.

On the right track with this one. A shallow DOF and a little better lighting would have paid big dvidends. The only thing I really dislike is the border. It really doesn't "go" with the shot. If it were orange and matched the color of the orange on the dials that would have been better...
