Tuuuubaaaa
(09.30.05)

Some of you are ga-ga about flowers, me, well... lately it's HEAVY metal. I mean, how could you pass this shot up, a five valve tuba. The thing is enormous with enough brass to stretch the length of a football field. My alternate is glass:

Canon EOS 20D ,Canon EF 24-70mm f/2.8L USM
1/4s f/22.0 at 27.0mm iso1600 full exif

other sizes: small medium original auto

Great shot , like the metal looks and curves, noticed the reflection was it black and white floor tiles ? your work is superb.

Lots of variations in the metallic tones and the shapes are so intricate. I can see why you chose this and photographed it your own unique style. Very nice.

I can't get my voice to go low enough to match this baby ;>)

I can see why you would be drawn to the brass. Stunning, I could easily see this series framed and in a jazz club somewhere.

The Tuba gets my vote. And, I'm a huge Selmer Sax fan.. Wonderful image.

So beautiful! I love the way you're taking these, with the instrument filling the frame.

This is awesome really. I do love flowers but if I had to choose it would be brass for me too. There is something about musical instruments and in particular the brass ilk that I just adore. And what a great job you did with the photo.

I have been searching your galleries for the silhouette shot that you did and I can't find it. Of course I am dog tired right now so I could just be overlooking it. Want to point me in the direction?

I'll these brass shots blow me away. They are wonderful!

Pretty fascinating. Looks almost like the innards of an old Rolls Royce.
