| This really jumps out. I love the contrast and the very slight sepia tone. Nice job. |

Greetings from the Critique Club
You received a good solid score for this photo, although, I personally would have expected it to score higher. I think this is a lovely candid shot that met the challenge perfectly.
Your B&W conversion is great (don't you just love the Silver Efex filters?), but I venture to suggest that the contrast maybe a bit too much for the DPC crowd? This is not my opinion, I love it, but I just wonder if that is perhaps one of the reasons for a below 6 score.
All in all, I think this was a great photo for this challenge and congrats on getting a postlumie nomination!

 PostLuminous Award Nominee!
at first glance a simple, wonderful image of a pretty girl, but so much more
perfect control of tone, contrast--with all those highlights in the background, SHE remains the highlight (as it should be)
microphones and stands blend with the background--present enough so we know they are there, but not distracting or dominant in the composition
and a nice little surprise--the background singer blending with with background.
capturing that smile, with her hand just so, really pushes this image to the top |

| How could you go wrong with a smiling, pretty girl playing a guitar? I'd venture to say most DPC'ers will score this high. |

This a great candid... her pose is alluring and her smile is beautiful. It's obvious that she's genuinely enjoying herself.
The bokeh is great and the shot is crisp and clear. I think I might have cropped out the second girl in the picture. I think you could have got away with cropping just at the end of the guitar.... but her presence isn't completely overpowering, so all is not lost.
Well done. |
