Valves


	Valves Last Sunday morning my wife dragged me out of bed to go a carboot sale. It was a cold, gray, rainy, and miserable morning. But I found this guy trying to sell some huge, old wind instruments I can't even name. YOU SHOULD ALWAYS HAVE YOUR CAMERA WITH YOU! Robert Pranagal

I love the details, Robert! It reminds me of trumpet valves!! I'd be interested in the black and white version too!! Happy shooting!

Cathy, Edwin, Jeannie and Dolores,

Thank you so much for your kind comments. You would not believe how dull it looked in reality. I am really impressed how the film rendered the colors. The background was an old canvas full of holes. Really junky...

BW is a great idea. I will definitely play with it in PS. I'm thinking of adding some grain to it, too.

Thanks again!

Thank you, Dolores.

I am sorry I haven't been keeping track of your images recently. I am sure you have a couple of winners this month, too.

Take care.

Thank you, Cathy!
You are being far too generous...
(but, please, do not quit that ;-D)

I am looking forward to my return to BP.

Good luck with your photos!
