3rd Place Mephisto Waltz by Sony Forums Challenges


08-DEC-2004

My son co-operated by playing a few bars from the piece by Liszt. The effect is not the same with the Moonlight Sonata.

Nice composition - I really like the movement of the hands!

kt, I like your perspective here...really nice sense of motion in the hands. As others have said, effective as a B&W too. MFC

Thanks folks. Mike, Sonofanata eh?. Sounds like a Dr. Zeuss word. Linda, parts of it sound pretty good. He's still working on it. Jerry, I play a little too but like you not fast enough. Helen, thanks, I'm partial to b&w. This one's imitating a Steinway. Trish, thanks for your comments. Salman, thanks. It does looks better in b&w since the white keys are made of ivory and are not perfectly white. The piano is over 80 years old but plays beautifully.

Splendid capture that works perfectly in B&W.

very nicely done Helen! I like the composition and the BW is just perfect...BW always seems to add elegance. -Trish (Meem)

Great capture, and perfect in B&W. Helen

Very dynamic shot! I play piano a bit, but my hands seldom move at this speed...

Beautifully captured kt. I can hear it now...

This works, and I'm sure you're right about the lessened effect with the other, which is possibly why Victor Borge called it 'Moonlight Sonofanata' ;-) - Mike
