Photographing String Players

String players are fun to photograph. The intensity and skill in their playing is reflected in their faces as they perform. Often the look is one of concentration with an edge of emotion resulting from the aesthetics of the moment.

The hands and bows move like lightening. This leaves the photographer with the option of using a very fast shutter speed to capture the bow without blur or to use a lower shutter speed allowing the bow and bow hand to create a motion blur that lends a nice texture to the shot.

The gentlemen to the right, an advanced student of Professor Eden Vaning, has an excellent tone. He is studying musicality (which will be the subject of Ms. Vaning's next book - her twenty-third volume on string playing. The Violin Book dot com).

The background of the photo is the teaching studio, (largely left untouched with only minor adjustments).

The Last Thing a Leak Sees before it’s gone is STAN looking back)
Too often a roof estimator, unskilled in the art of finding
roof leaks will tell you a new roof is needed when there is still life left in it.
By experience, 85% of the roofs inspected
by Stan are repairable. Sooner or later every roof needs
to be replaced, but later is better than sooner for most
budgets. Call Stan. He’ll shoot you straight. If you need a
new roof, he’ll give you a fair bid. But repairing a roof with
life left in it allows you time to plan. All work guaranteed!
Free Estimates!!! Roof maintenance programs.!!!
