Trumpet
Posted By: roentarre, 08-09-2008, 04:11 AM

It was a casual walk. I read my morning papers and slowly enjoyed a cup of coffee, sitting opposite to this band of musicians.

He played one of the most classic folk song that made my day wonderful.

I like it, it has a strange feel to it (something in the PP work) not in a bad way. I can almost hear the music. nice work and glad it made your day.

I like the feel to that shot. Shame about the big brown thing on the right.

Real nice James.
I'd like to hear what he's playing too.

Sharp wide open - fantastic....

Love the creamy light blue/green background bokeh and the shadows mixed in.

Thanks, Pat. There is a touch of soft layer added with selective edge sharpening. The under-exposed noise in the bokeh were smoothed out.

The mood is all I am after and I guess in a dull winter day, candid can be fun still.

There was this large lady playing cordion and it was hard not to include her within the frame. I wished that dissapeared itself too

A little retro I guess. Thanks for the comment.

Glad that people shared the view about mood.

In reality, this zoom is not that sharp... But good enough for the casual shooting of the day.

Bokeh is quite good with this zoom. Otherwise it would be a very dull photo.

Thanks, that shot is the only one worthwhile keeping for the whole day.
