I have to credit Travis for giving me the idea to take this shot. My 19-year-old next-door neighbor has played the bagpipes since he was in 6th grade. I love hearing him practice -- he's really talented.

Nice idea with the bagpipes. I think the bagpipes are a cool instrument, someday I should learn how to play them. I like the colors in the kilt and the way you organized this shot. I think it has some great compositional qualities to it. I think I would have stopped down my aperture though. The f/3.5 gives us a limited dof and I think I would have liked to see everything in focus on this one. It is hard for me to tell exactly where the focus is falling so it is hard to determine what the main subject really is, so a larger f-stop would have fixed that problem. Overall this is nicely done.

Very nice colors in this shot and the composition isn't bad. I agree with Travis about the DOF. Need a wider DOF for this shot to get more in focus. The pipes being OOF is distracting. It's the first thing that I looked at in the shot and you want where your eye is drawn to be in focus.

I like the use of color in this shot and I'm a fan of the bagpipes! This was definitely a unique find.

I like this shot, but perhaps a different crop or a little vintage action or something might have me liking it a little better.

I definitley like the composition of this shot too and all of the colors! I'm thinking maybe a tighter crop on the bottom so that not as much black was showing may have made it a bit stronger...or maybe it is just a wider DOF that would have done it. Like this shot!
