This would have been a great photo if it had not been out of focus.

Good idea, but the focus seems to be off. Focus is on the background, not the pipers.

Judging from the attire..they`re not piping anywhere near where I live :)
Love the glasses and the mobile phone attached to the belt.

Sorry but it seems you placed your focus point on the foliage behind the three pipers, at least it seems to be in focus and they are not.

I believe you may see your score suffer somewhat from this being a tad out of focus and appearing to be more of a "snapshot".

Focus a bit off and would have cropped around waist and tighter on interesting arrangement of heads/shirts/drones.
