I love cellos music! But it's not the reason why my rate it's 7! The B&W it's perfect, the aim of the artist it's fully concentrate on his music, crop accentuate the power of the gesture. Bravo, ciao Sergio

Wonderful portrait of an artist.  The image is really crisp with superb use of lighting.  Compliments,

A fine portrait, outstanding B&W work. He looks so caught up in his music that the camera is not in his thoughts at all.

Another fine image with excellent "warm tone"

Very nicely done, perfect processing. I just wish there were the slightest touch of motion blur on his bow hand.

Hi Saad,

Music is an important part of life, and your fine photography

has captured this aspect of life very well.

Best Regards my friend, Mike

A classic! Pure perfection, technically and in regard of composition and capture of the really interesting character with his cello in a perfcet position and with great low key lighting! Bravo, Saad!
