Not sure how "on-topic" this is, but I love this shot. Beautiful capture!

I tried alluding to it by the title. This man is a member of a jazz quartet that is playing as I shoot. He's taking a brief pause during the trumpet solo, when he doesn't play for a few seconds. Moments before I shot this picture, he was playing the flute on stage, and the same song is playing as I shoot the picture and when he gets back on stage. In a way, he's enjoying his own music. -- Victor

I don't understand the decisive moment in this picture, Victor.

Processing included very slight levels adjustment, Neatimage, selected USM, and faded Gaussian blur (10 pixels blur faded to 25% normal). -- Victor
