I would love Love LOVE to see this in black and white with someone's fingers actually on the keypads. The composition and lighting are great!

9/11/2006 9:53:53 AM

Thanks, Judy and Andrew.

Andrew, I tried b/w, but it ended up flat. As for the fingers, so many days I'm all alone...and no model to use. So, no fingers.

9/11/2006 3:37:34 PM

Awesome image Margie...the tones are perfect and so is the framing....

9/11/2006 8:12:44 PM

Margie, excellent detail, tones, lighting and composition.

9/11/2006 9:20:03 PM

Thanks so much, Kenneth and Janine!

9/12/2006 10:55:15 AM

I love this image! It takes me back in time to a friend who played the sax.
Fun times. As for the image, it's great
and I do love the tones and your
lighting looks perfect. Nice work!

9/14/2006 4:34:54 AM

Thank you, Beverly! It's my nephew's sax. He, but mostly his mother, were very surprised at how aged it was!

9/14/2006 5:47:36 AM

Hey Aunt Margie! That looks familiar to me. :-)

This photo is so good though. My mom told me I needed to clean the key pads, but if I did, it wouldn't have the aged look that it does.

9/14/2006 9:07:07 PM

You should always listen to you mother! (Although I never listened to your mother growing up.) I was happy it wasn't a shiny sax...added character!

9/15/2006 6:18:44 AM

I love the crop and the colors here!
