I do like very much how the lighting is here. I find though that the actual light itself is distracting. it's just kind of THERE. it intrudes from the right, and covers a portion of the subject.
While this is a photo of something dealing with sound. I'm stuck thinking about the actual buttons rather than 'sound'.
The angle and framing/cropping is good, but wish that the actual light was not in the shot. I feel myself looking at that more than at the buttons themselves.
The focus and clarity are really great. I think that you did a great job getting the detail and crispness of the lettering around the buttons. That is really important to even recognize this as something dealing with sound.
While I don't SEE the sound, I do definately think about it. I like how the subject fills the entire frame of the photo.
Good find.

I think this is a really great shot. The light, silhouette and shadows are used very effectively. Great composition, also, and it conveys the challenge very nicely. 9
This is a very, very neat shot in terms of lighting and composition in general. Unfortunately, even though there's a belated connection to the topic in my mind, the initial impression was not of sound, but of light and shadow.
