Bland subject that I think should've been rotated 90 degrees CW.

not clear that there is any motion here

Nice angle. I like it in black and white.

Good perspective on this photo. Somehow, even though I know his hand is moving, I just don't like this photo for this challenge. It still scores above average.

what motion did you stop
Olympus C-3030Z

Nice piece. I'd prefer more implied motion.

i had the same problem.. a stop action looking like a still life. or maybe this IS a still life? i see you really love your guitar! so do i.

He might have been moving, but he could just as easy posed for this shot. Doesn't convene the message of motion in this picture.

Not a bad shot. Interesting composition. Like it better the more I look at it.

Nice picture and I like the angle but I really don't see much action.

Better not rotated 90° CW. Not the greatest use of negative space, but okay. Right side (top) needs some flash, too. Looks like the flash auto sensor was tricked by the glare from the pickup.

doesn't really fall into my definition of stopped motion. Yes the guy is playing a guitar

Maybe if it was dude jumping in the air with a guitar I would know why this qualifys as stop motion.

I like the angle you've chosen -- it definitely makes the shot.

good angled photo, with interesting light, but not a very strong example of 'stopped motion'

good pic

Good perspective Glad you got the guy singing, otherwise it may have looked like he was just standing there. Perhaps a stopped shot of a drummer would've been more, um, obvious?
Sony DSC-F707

no action

great angle, great shot.

I'd like to see more of his head, he's peeling back off the photo!
Canon PowerShot G1
 04/16/2002 02:56:00 AM
I'm sure he's moving, but you don't get that sense from the picture. A good pic otherwise.

I do like black and whites and I like Les Pauls also.. I have a '65 standard myself. Plays like a dream and sounds even better. I'm looking for the motion that is supposed to be stopped. The perspective of this shot is very nice...

Not much motion on a G chord!

Nice angle, but I would have liked more light, would have helped to separate the guy's shirt from the background. BTW, is that a Gibson les Paul? If it is, NICE

oooh Action!

Keep turning my head on this one. Not a whole lot of motion going on really.

I personally don't like band photos, but I'm able to look at this objectively and I really do think it's a good photo.

Nice angle:)))
 04/15/2002 08:54:00 AM
Interesting angle. I like that. And the b/w makes it.
