Piano player

Rochester, MN

I was sitting near the piano when a small group of men got off of an elevator nearby. This man noticed the piano, came over and started playing beautifully.

How awesome! Must have been great to hear him. Wonderful picture of him. I'm betting his co-workers were amazed.

Thank you Pat, Pete and Frank. This man made beautiful music and I'm pretty sure that he has a very bright future in his other endeavors.

Talk about being in the right place at the right time, a superb capture Cindy.

Nice shot, must be amazing to be good enough to just strike up in public like that.

He has great posture and you caught a great image... the piano is also very reflective it shines so much.

Thanks for commenting Jeff and Bob. I never go anywhere without a camera in my purse...usually my NEX or little Rollei...but this time I had the M9 in there.

will pop up.

Thanks, Terry, Hal and Michael. Happy Thanksgiving to everyone and their families.
The lighting was mixed and brutal, but you have to sometimes take it as it comes.

The epitome of candid shooting, Cindy.
Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family..

A very fine spontaneous photograph Cindy.
You certainly captured the feeling and one can almost hear the music.

Makes me want to uncover my piano and start playing again. :)
A nicely composed photograph, Cindy. You did very well with a tricky
lighting situation.
