 The album is by Sublime. And I set it up to spin at 78 RPM adjusted Hue and saturation and this is what we ended up with...I had no idea a good old fashion LP at 33&1/3 could still be had for current groups but...as you can see:)

Wow, excellent colors! This would make a great album cover or poster for a pop group.

Very imaginative shot, love the colours and the title. The only problem being I think I can see your reflection on the record

This is a great photo. I love the colors here - I love the clarity and composisiton. I can't really find anything wrong technically with it. However - to me this does not say speed at all.

What an excellent idea. The colors are fantastic, so bright & vibrant. I like how you cropped it, having it off center like that. I also like the blue border as well. It turned out great =) Good luck!

Colorful, fun image! Might have been slightly better with better lighting on the stylus, but it's still a great shot.

What great colors! The composition and lighting are also right on, and it fits the "speed" theme very well. But those colors, WOW!
