Musicians are fascinating people. I'm looking for formal portraits to candid action shots and everything in between. There must be a musical instrument in the photo. Tune up your cameras for this one.

This challenge begins when posted and ends at midnight GMT on 1 May 2023. Winner of this challenge will be announced shortly thereafter.

The Challenge Rules:

1. Camera: Any DIGITAL CAMERA is allowed, not just DSLR.
2. Time: Any on-topic photo taken at any time is eligible, although photos that have won other competitions should NOT be entered.
3. Size: Please visit Image Posting Rules.
4. Post Processing: Do whatever you like, and the host will decide if it works.
5. Posting: ONE PHOTO per photographer per challenge. List camera model & lens used. Post brief EXIF data: ISO, shutter speed and aperture.
6. Commenting: No commenting during challenge. When the posting is closed and a winner declared, comments can be made in this thread.
7. Keep it clean, and both Family and Work safe.
8. Have questions, PM me.
9. Have lots of FUN!

>> THE WINNER ALWAYS SETS THE THEME FOR THE NEXT CHALLENGE, POSTS IT AND JUDGES IT - BE PREPARED

Here is an example of mine from an ongoing project photographing musicians on large format film. You can see more here: https://www.josephbrun​jes.com …dELqH_lY/G0000Q​APHiJXyXnk (external link)

Elaine the drummer from Neon Trees. I love RnR music, Photo it often, and I find it rather challenging to get a good photo of a drummer in action.

Sorry again for the delay.
Lt. Dave: love the low angle, motion, and drama. I wish you had not cut off their feet.

Dilorenzo: what an expression. I hope he enjoys the guitar more than being photographed.

Old Crow: you included just enough to make it obvious that it is a banjo. Love the contrast of the red and blue. A square cropping might make it stronger

Jerry: great candid band shot. Bold strong colors.

RDWP: I am trying to imagine what type of music the violinist is playing. I like the fading circles of tables. You also got nice facial expressions and 2 photographers as well.

TerryP: great isolation of the drummer. Lighting really isolates the drummer from the background.

The winner is RDWP. Great scene. Congrats!
