    Very well captured!

  • Phil Deaves

    Phil Deaves, 8 months ago

    The best of your three postings…in my opinion. This one has a more voyeuristic quality. The left hand is well caught. I can see the strength in her fingers.

    Many thanks Phil for the your detailed comments!

  • Rosina  Lamberti

    beautiful work any cellist would love to have this in their portfolio

  • Persimmon

    Persimmon in reply to Rosina Lamberti’s comment, 8 months ago

    thankyou Rosina..but this isn’t a cello its a tenor viola-da-gamba (popular during the 16th and 17th centuries)

  • raae

    raae- Ministress of Public Domain Madness, 8 months ago

    I really love this one! Its great how cropping out the face draws shifts the focus to the lines of the instrument… and i also like how the shape of the instrument mirrors the shape of her body. The veins in her wrist are a great contradiction to the overall strength of the image. Its beautiful!

    Oh! Merci beaucoup. Il est vachement fantastique pour trouver quelqu’un qui connaît cet instrument superbe. Il n’est pas possible que vous comprenniez l’importance de vos compliments. Pardon pour mon Français terrible.

  • sharrukina malek

    sharrukina malek, 7 months ago

    i have never seen a cello like this. it looks very olden style. is this really a modern cello? i have a cello and it looks nothing like this. i find cello to be a bloody sexy instrument for women

    Nikki Trexel, 6 months ago

    i agree with the commenter who said that when you can’t see her face, you are more drawn to the elegance and style of the beautiful instrument. perfect shot.

  • Persimmon

    Persimmon in reply to Nikki Trexel’s comment, 6 months ago

    thank you. sometimes a face has too much personality…it was the instrument’s personality which needed to show
