Photographer’s Note
The 'gayageum' is a type of 12 stringed zither, a unique variety of a Korean musical instrument. Shot at the Suwon University, south of Seoul in Gyeonggi Do / province. These ladies were part of the foreign teachers welcoming committee. I've tried some pp work here.

Hi Chris,
Well composed with good dynamics and colour. I like the varying expressions on the faces of the musicians. The boy on the left really stands out. The instruments are really quite intriguing. Crisp and clear. I like this photo very much.

Hi Chris
A fine group you present here - Quite big instruments to those "small" people - thanks for sharing this moment.

Hi Chris
I've only just noticed this shot. The array of performers is well captured here. I like the pattern and formation of the seating arrangement and the discipline of the performers. Great outfits, and I especially like the inclusion of the boy to the left with a blue outfit, as it offers contrast and balance to the shot at the same time. Well captured.

Bonjour, mon ami Chris,
Voilà une image intéressante, jouer de la zither-harpe relève d'une application certaine à son apprentissage. De plus, les partitions doivent être difficiles à lire compte tenu des notes produites.
Sujet très intéressant et bien traité.
Amitiés.

Hi Chris,
I find the faces very lovely, everybody mouth open for singing, also the attire of the band gives very nice colour at the picture.
Thanks for sharing.
Have a nice weekend,
