Chris,
This is extra cool. I agree you should put the story in the comments section. I like the angle, graininess, and obvious candid expressions. So much more interesting than a staid portrait.
This is a terrific candid moment giving alot of context to the even occuring. Not sure if I like the direction of the color tint, but that is subjectional. I feel the same about the tilt. A tough shot to nail, but pretty good exposure wise. A fun candid shot.
very cool photo and a great story behind it! they have great expressions and I really love the lines on the wall and the arm line of one of the musicians, they are parallel! really cool
having just spent 3 days in a studio, i can totally relate to the effort behind the shot. i might suggest that rather than shooting everything eye-level, try exploring other perspectives, such as putting the camera down to the board and shooting up.
Nice but it would help if the slides on the sound equipment were at a different position that they started at. makes it look less like you borrowed a mates studio for 10 mins to take the shot.
I think the moment captured is interesting, but a few things hurt the image. I think the very strong grain doesn't contribute positively; the coloration and lens flare also detract some.
