Challenge: Parallel Lines (Basic Editing I)
Camera: Olympus C-750UZ
Location: lower register strings of piano in living room
Date: Mar 10, 2004
Aperture: 8.0
ISO: 50
Shutter: 1/6
Galleries: Interior, Architecture
Date Uploaded: Mar 10, 2004

taken w/flash, cropped, increased contrast, level balance in PS

elapsed time from reading challenge to submission:
8 minutes

I had thought to taking pictures of the inside of the piano, so this was perfect. I started out with a bigger picture, which I heavily croppes because I really liked the way that the the wires in the lower half curved, the coil texture, and how the frame was split by the two boards holding the pegs.

It's a very technical-feeling shot -- I'm left wanting drama.

great idea, I think the critics will slam the foreground straps, but for me I can live with it..

Piano-strings are a good subject. There must have been dozens of different viewpoints you could have taken. I think this is a good one, but I would like to have seen the others.

Nice picture, a shame that the foreground is a bit to bright

Nice color on the strings. The overly bright wood in the foreground seems to detract a bit from the overall picture.

Interesting subject, well captured. Might have been a bit nicer B&W, but that's just my humble opinion :)
