Hello Aleks,

I've been peering at this one for the last few minutes trying to see if I can see any evidence of the photographer, but I don't think I can!

This is a very appropriate picture for Eastertime and it is very expertly composed - or cropped. The main focus of attention must, of course, be the fine reflections of the other band members in the huge brass bell of this tuba but we also get a good view of the musician with the mouthpiece of the tuba closely applied to his lips.

Beautiful vibrant colours, perfect exposure and amazing detail.

Wonderful!

Have a Lovely Easter!

Kind Regards,

John.

Aleks
Ces multiples reflets sur l'instrument de musique sont un vrai régal pour les yeux. Bien vu et bien photographié. Ta "présence" discrète signe ton œuvre -)
Amicalement
JJ

Hello Aleks,
I found the photographer! Do I get a reward?
Like Luciano said, not a new idea but very well rendered, perfectly cropped and very well balanced.
Kind regards,
Gert
