This is just over the EV 4.0 threshold, but it's intended as a low-key shot, not low light.

A nice semi-silhouette and teh slightly grungy quality of light and grain matches and evokes the mood. Nice! Tim A.

Retracting part of the comment below that states "...but find the low light to be a limiting factor creatively". I had misread the topic to be low light and low key. - RK

To me this is a very good example of low-key picture. Theres a lot of pictures which meet the low-light threshold (basically long exposure)...but not sure about the low-key aspect. Low-key pictures can be very moody and dramatic with high contrast...but find the low light to be a limiting factor creatively. - RK

I agree. This one is much better. The other one looks more like a snapshot. The composition on this one, on the other hand is very nice. -- Victor

In my opinion this is a much stronger image than Irish Music1. Great shot! Definitely low key.
