 I played bass guitar and learned the main riff to Iron Man over 20 years ago. Recently my son started playing drums and wanted me to get a bass so we could jam. I mean how does a dad say no to that? Anyway, Geezer Butler puts lots of cool fills and does his own little jam under the guitar solo which I never learned way back when because the rest of my band were not interested in the song. So I’ve been learning the rest of the song lately. When I started setting up to take a picture of my bass and/or amp for this challenge, I noticed that my wife left the ironing board set up. Inspiration hit me and here we are. Not expecting much of a score – just hoping a few people see my feeble attempt at humor. And if you stuck with me this far, thanks, you have a longer attention span than I do :)

A little more contrast would be better for this shot. Very well done shot, well balanced and lit.
