Punish the unrighteous..

Description

Joel, Guitarist of local Vancouver folk-metal band 'Trollband' salutes the crowd before their set opening up for legendary Finnish folk-metal band Korpiklaani

I wanted the guitar completely in frame, but had to make the choice to go a little tighter to capture the stoic metal salute before he put his arm down. plus, it would have left a little too much dead space

Personally I like the overall feel of the photo. The guitarist is pretty much centered, the space is distributed fairly evenly. It would be nice to have the full guitar in frame, however, it doesn't remove from the piece.

You can see the emotion and passion for the music on the guitarists face. The emotion might emphasize a little bit more if the photo was possibly black and gray. But instead of full black and gray, leave the guitar in color.

Also, the watermark/tag at the top of the photo is a little distracting, you might consider making that smaller and placing it in a less noticeable location.

Very good photo, I appreciate music that shows emotion. Well done!
