Thanks Tom:-) Musical instruments just seem to have some magic to me.

Great macro Rod! I love the shine of the metal & tones of the wood & keys.

Good points Andy, I thought this was OK as it was but after reading your comment I rolled the screen up to see the crop & I think you may be right as it does seem stronger. The only problem is I've been knocking these skinny crops for a while so how do I get out of this one:-) Thanks mate.

I like the detail and colour here but not sure that the neg space above the tuning "thingies" works as well as it might. I want to crop about half that space giving a more balanced image to me, albeit a panoramic one.

We're never to old to learn, a Tommy:-) Trouble is I keep forgetting wot I've just learnt:-) Thanks mate.

Nice to see more of the guitar. Looks like a classic. Good shot and another demo of negative space. I remember a comment in 1972 by my photography teacher asking why I always left so little "space" around an object. Frankly I never understood teh meaning of his question until 35 years later in this challenge. -tv
