The originality of this shot stands out really well. The frame of the guitar players legs with the drummer in the background is very cool to the eye. The composition is interesting with the use of wide aperture capturing the performance. This picture has a nice rock n roll vibe to it, I really enjoy the creativity and energy with this shot. Awesome work.

A nice balanced composition demonstrating the violin maker at his best. The concentration and articulation of the maker is an effective point of view. The lighting and shadows really help add depth to the shot. I like the earthy tones and colors of the tools and other instruments. A very well taken and thought out picture demonstrating the art of instrument making. Nice work.

A really cool idea capturing the busker via a phone. The composition is really captivating to the eye with the use of a wide aperture. The busker performing through the phone lens looks effective. The gloves have a nice detail and being in black in white help contrast the shot really well by complimenting the final image.

Meet the judge

A very clever and well-composed shot with some effective post-processing capturing the music with an autumn leaf used as a needle. The point of view is very eye-grabbing to the piece of work. I really enjoy the use of color especially the pale tones used for the background. The lighting and shadows are quite balanced with the black vinyl adding depth to the composition. Nice shot.
