As a fiddle player myself I can appreciate the old mechanical pegs of this instrument which I love. I love the detail and your capture of the texture of the metal as well as the maple wood. I can't find a flaw in this image. It has warmth and beauty.

Behind The Lens

Location

Central Park New York, NY. Central Park Jazz Festival.

Time

10AM.

Lighting

Nice sunny day in the fall. Natural lighting.

Equipment

Canon 5D Mark2, Canon 70-200 2.8L IS2.

Inspiration

I was walking around Central Park. Everyone was setting up for the Jazz Festival. I was intrigued by the mechanical workings of the bass head.

Editing

Just cropped.

In my camera bag

5D Mark2, 50D, 70-200 2.8L IS2, 16-35 2.8L II, Speedlight 600, Gitzo tripod, etc.

Feedback

I really enjoy controlling DOF. I learned years ago, to try the same shot with many different setting, The results are amazing. Most of all, enjoy yourself.
