Umm..I wanted to use this as a good excuse to enter the other open challenge and go up into the mountains. But I am busy...and lazy. So I did this last minute. I chose black and white to enhance the subject and draw him out from the background.

Superb presentation and yes, where did those one's come from! Congratulations on your top 20 finish.

Maybe not a ribbon, but certainly underrated in this challenge. Should have been top 10. The people behind those 1 votes probably didn't have their blindfolds properly calibrated.

Awesome b/w study. My only suggestion would be to get the top of the guitar and the other hand in frame. Other than that great work!

This photo does the best job of the 'landscape' requirement of the contest, in a real (not forced/contrived) way. This deserves to finish in the top three. Great job lighting BTW. I like the backlight,very effective! Congrats!

Love this picture. I wonder, would it be possible to let the neck of the guitar extend beyond the frame?

This is a great photo...well done. But I had to deduct a point for the model not actually holding a chord! ;) j/k

Good use of the landscape orientation in this photo, however I would appreciate this photo more if the guitar was not cut off by the border, i.e. keep the photo wider.

Technically - perfect. Emotionally - I don't like the glamourized look.
