Hi Steve,Steve Mason January 29, 2008
Thanks, everyone, for the kind words. Glad this one works - it's been a work in progress, and a really fun process! #5413110Shari Kelly January 29, 2008
Steve---The first thing you notice is the detail of the instrument, great macro, but what grabs my eye is the reflection of the music in the instrument...really excellent image here and I agree with all comments above...this is my fave out of all them...Steve Mason January 30, 2008
Thanks, Sharon! I appreciate your thoughts. #5417847Joseph N. DiGilio March 13, 2008
This is a very appealing macro image, Steve. I have never photographed musical instruments. I find your work here inspiring and inspired as well. Your titie, subject and the sheet music in the foreground are well chosen and illustrate your fine eye for detail. Your composition and presentation are superb. The reflection of the sheet music in the brass is the icing on the cake. This is very fine work.Marisol Pastor June 04, 2008
