daily_photograph 0 Posted February 19, 2008 When you give me a mud-fiddler and I have the choice then I take the fiddle :-))Nice the overall chaining by the colour, keeping interest by the contrasting shapes (of violin and shadow). I even could take this work without a tiny part at the top expecting the instrument more intense... Link to comment
jcpopper 0 Posted February 20, 2008 Classic! Lovely play of light and shadows combined with artfully subdued tones. Fine work. Regards... Link to comment
j_m_lee_photography 0 Posted February 20, 2008 The shadows behind look interesting too. Link to comment
gordonjb 10,860 Posted February 20, 2008 The tones of the wooden floor , the instrument and the wall, merge into a single expression. The play of shadows on the wall looks musical, echoing the bridge and strings of the instrument. A very warm and inviting portrayal. Pnina; I did not become lost at the bottom of the sea LOL .... just crazy busy since arriving home from holidays :) Link to comment

aepelbacher 0 Posted February 20, 2008 Oh GREAT! Another musical instrument image. I thought you were done. (Hope not!) I LOVE this ... the color tones are perfect, and the composition, with the shadows ... it's a wonderful image, Pnina! Link to comment
Donna Stavis 0 Posted February 20, 2008 I like the wood on wood because it brings out the beauty of the instrument, the shadows forms behind it which give the impression of late in the day, a time to listen to a beautiful concert, and the red velvet rest for the neck, which emphasizes its value.

timkeller 0 Posted February 20, 2008 I love the warm brown tones and am fascinated by the shadows. The title implies story. Lovely. Link to comment
adan1 0 Posted February 20, 2008 Great details and tones. I too find the shades in the background fascinating. Link to comment
rogerleekam 0 Posted February 20, 2008 Pnina, again the light and shadows that make this. Very nice texture and subdued tones. Link to comment
jeffl7 0 Posted February 21, 2008 This evokes cubism to me: George Braque in treatment and feel. I think the shadows are exquisite. This feels rooted more in your career as painter than as dancer or musician. Lovely!! Link to comment
janusz1 0 Posted February 21, 2008 Beautiful Work, Feels very Spanish... this intricate and artistic insinuation of surrealism Link to comment
pnital 36 Posted February 21, 2008 Tim, I like your browns too, they are called earth colors... Adan, and Roger I'm glad you liked the shadows, yes they make the image. Jeff, and Janusz thansk for braque and Spanish.... , I think Jeff that all my work is rooted at the end in my painting love and education. Thanks for feeling and expressing it. Link to comment
kim_tural 0 Posted February 21, 2008 Warm amber lighting to enhance the richness of the wood of the instrument and a nice play of intriguing shadows makes you wonder what is just outside the picture. Link to comment
alberto_quintal 2 Posted February 22, 2008 Beautiful work, I love the lighting and colors, Pnina. Alberto Link to comment
Guest Guest Posted February 22, 2008 The shadows on the wall give this photo energy and life. I also thought of cubism and find, as Gordon does, that the shadows echo a musical theme. That background is offset by what I experience as a somewhat lifeless pose of the instrument itself. It rests there, leaning just a bit downward on its case which obstructs an otherwise concise and geometric composition. The warm and subdued colors provide a very nice overall feel to the photo and the lighting accompanies those tones quite beautifully. Link to comment
