Default Guitar Hero

This guy was playing outside a bookstore in Palo Alto last night as I waited for a friend to meet me for dinner. Amazing.

Those are all awesome. I feel inspired now to take some music shots and to play a little guitar.

I love these shots! They really capture the guitar player's energy and soul. I think the last three are my favs (most likely my partiality towards monochrome photos). Thanks for sharing, and keep up the great work!

Indeed, as stated above - that last image is superb. You have a keen eye for composition (assuming that it was planned). Thanks for sharing.
