Heidi and Richard

What a marvelous trio! Sorry not to have included a shot with Gerry (on oboe), but the environment didn't really permit me to move around - as it was my clicking away was distracting enough to the other guests. Having no game plan going in, I felt trapped in my seat. I wish now I had asked the hosts and musicians if a request for an indulgence by the audience could have been floated. Any suggestions on how best to handle shooting something like a chamber music gig with an audience of two or three dozen paying customers?

Thank you Olaf and Michael both for your kind words. Sorry work is so crushing not to get back here at the challenge more often. - Kelly

Kelly, your three pieces form an excellent triptych. This one is my favorite of the three, but I think there's power in viewing them together. I would never have been brave enough to choose the scroll of the violin as my focus point, kudos to you because it works so very well. -Michael

I especially like the lines in this composition. This is the most special of the three, imo. It conveys well the togetherness music can provide - well done! --Olaf.dk
