Well this one certainly meets the contest prerequisites.

The colors are beautiful and accurately reproduced.

The camera settings are spot on perfect. Especially the shutter speed, it was fast enough that there is no visible finger motion all is stopped cold.

Too bad you didn't move more to the right to get the Base and Mandolin players and hopefully lose the lady in the hat.

This is an excellent entry for this contest, good luck... Bob

I bet you had a great day listening to so much music, and you have pictured this group really well. The only draw back is the blurred had in the foreground. It is actually quite distracting.

The photo is otherwise nice and sharp showing clear and well defined details, and also crisp and clear colors. The exposure is very good.

The way you have cropped the photo works well, and I think this is an all together lovely and well taken photo. I wish you luck with the contest.

    Thanks annie. Yeah - wish the lady with the hat wasn't there. Oh well, can't get it right all the time.

    You are more than welcome, and I fully appreciate that it is difficult to take shots like this with so many people around.

Would of gave it a six but the blurred hat in the foreground takes away from the scene. Otherwise well focused, detailed and looks like a fun say. Thanks for sharing and good luck with the contest!

it would have been worth a six stars if you could take off the large hat of the lady in the foreground left; lol;................................................................................

A good looking image posted here into the competition together with interesting notes too! Your fine composition captures a good musical action moment. Colours, textures and tones are good. Sharpness and exposure are fine. Well done and good luck!

A good shot for the Music contest, I do love to hear the banjo!
Focus is good, but it's a real shame about those two very blurred hats right in the foreground, they rather detract from the overall shot.
Exposure is good, giving nice natural colours, and the composition is fine.
Good luck in the competition!

Looks like you enjoyed this music festival as such pity though you did not find a better view because those hats although not in focus do slightly spoil the effect of the group playing...Brian
