Incredible image, wonder what the story behind it is? I particularly like the reflection of the faces in the piano. It looks like a private moment but with those faces looks like more of a performance.
Congrats on your Red! I would love to know *more* of the story behind this wonderfully captured image. For me what story unfolds from the photograph is a music lesson being given in the surroundings of an studio filled with music (the piano and the guitars) and art. One can feel the creative vibe being strummed in this setting.
My first ribbon ! Thank you for your great comments.
The picture is from a guitar concert at a music school for children in the Village Nordfjordeid in Norway. In addition to the window visible in the picture there are another two windows behind the guitar players that brings out the light.
To better amplify the reflection in the piano I have adjusted the dark colors in the picture, and the reflection shows chidren behind the door, listening to the music.
I like the shot. But for the challenge this seems more "natural light" or even "back light" than "window light". It also looks like you worked hard to balance shadows and window light than simply featuring the glow coming from/thru the windows. Almost indoor HDR-ish.
Really great image I love the toning the composition and the great story, and not to mention the reflections of the children in the piano, although I'm not sure if it's real, since I'm trying to figure out where the children would be sitting in the room, so I'm guessing it must be just a picture.
