Some good shots here. Like the light in 4, expression in 5 and general capture in six. The light in one is really harsh and 2&3 have their mics jammed in their mouths, but are well exposed. Well done!

Yeah, the mics in the fice really caught my attention in 2 & 3, especially #3.

But overall some really nice captures.

What kind of PP is that on the first image - guy playing the congos. I like it. Looks like a tad of Lucis Art.

dont know what lucisart is.. i started out with a lightroom preset that i downloaded which basically desaturates a bit and adjusts curves. then i just started playing with contrast and some more curves in shadow and highlights. trial and error. i usually dont pp like this but it somehow caught my attention for this specific shot with his dark muscular build... perhaps not to everyones liking though.
