I love the voice of the violin. My younger son studied it for 12 years and was a member of the Atlanta Symphony Youth Orchestra for 5 years. In the late 80s my mother bought five violins at an estate auction. I still have them all and this is the most interesting of them.

Do I play them? I have no sense of rhythm. I have trouble playing my iPod but do manage it pretty well.

Yes. This certainly qualifies as a low-key shot. I really love the warmth of the tones and the lighting, composition, and cropping are all wonderful. Jim H.

I love these images of violins which you create, Pops. You do it with such style and feeling. Do you play? Each of the images is unique with feeling until itself, much as each instrument has its own voice. -Michael

Thanks all. I appreciate the kind comments.

Elegant indeed! I really like how the lighting gives a 2-d form outlining the lower edge, yet it adds enough shadowing in the mid-subject to give a 3-dimensional form and texture to the wood. - angioman
