Music expresses that which cannot be said and on which it is impossible to be silent. Victor Hugo
The guitarist in the photo was playing on the streets of Nuremberg Germany, absorbed in the song he was playing we stood absorbed as the music floated around us. between songs he acknowledged those that place a contribution into his guitar case. He acknowledged my camera, an smiled for a photograph, then went back playing. I like the images of him playing, his passion for his music is palatable.
I have been following along with Kim Klassen’s Cafe, she has some wonderful textures, e-lessons, “where textures and photos connect.” After adding the texture I used the the Floreabella Retro Vintage Action, adding to the vintage feel. I have been experimenting with different images and I want to that these two websites for inspiration and encouragement.
I love photos of musicians as well, especially since my parents and now 7 year old son are musicians. I LOVE watching my son play guitar, as well as hearing him!! Thank you for the share. Love the added texture!
thansk Gloverlee, there is something special about families sharing music!
I like the Victor Hugo quotation as well …
thanks Frizztext! I sometimes find it difficult to find the right words, so I look to others who are more adept than I.
I love the way his concentration shines through in this picture.
the passion for his music was very evident -
This is beautiful, the texture you aded is just perfect.
Funny I just came across Kim Klassen’s site today. It appears as though the gentleman in the photo is cares deeply about his music. Excellent capture.
I hope you enjoy Kim’s textures, she is a great teacher! thanks for you kind comments. the music was lovely to listen to!
