    On the saxophone

    We had been going to a barn party with several bands playing (mostly blues) that a long time friend of ours had been putting on for years. Unfortunately, our friend passed away a few weeks ago and it was his wish that the party should go on, even if we was not around anymore.

    I took quite a few shots of the musicians and other events in and around the farm, in memory of our friend.

    The first image is of one of the members of the Brant Parker Blues Band on his saxophone...

    Needless to say, the lighting was hard and tough to shoot with.

    This photo has it all: emotion, composition, color, environment, depth of field, etc., etc.

    You did a great job, Sir, it's like you are actually creating a tribute for that friend of yours.

    Nicely done. What could have been a messy BG nearly disappears.
