Michelle Winterstein submitted this image taken with a Canon Rebel XT, with an exposure of 1/125sec at f/4.0, ISO 1600. Michelle has cropped this from the original version with the drummer in the background. This is a very interesting photo. The red light hitting the front of the guitarist gives the image a graphic feel. A touch of curves would preserve the look of the image while accentuating the red. To clean up the background, consider cloning out the partial microphone.
