A busker

A busker with his home made foot operated guitar strumming machine, and it works.

I like it - I don't see many buskers, let alone any with that kind of set-up!

Personally I would have shot from a low, straight-on angle, to isolate the main subject and emphasise the foot operated guitar, although with a little more room, the onlookers would be a nice addition to the image.

Different idea on playing music.
Your shot could be better tho. The background is too busy (in your face) and the extra public dont help. As IW says the angle could be better.
Nice try

great subject, its a really interesting looking peice of equipment hes got there, want to know more about it.

As said though, the angle could have been much better. I'd have gone with a wide angle lens close up and low on the machine, thus drawing even more attention to it.

Thanks for your comments all, i don`t do much street photography, it was his strumming machine that attracted my attention.
