This is a great portrait, Martin! I really like it in b&w and the strong diagonal of the saxaphone opposes the vertical lines of the figure. Well done!

Great P.R. shot. Too often, photographers take shots of musicians with unnatural poses (I get this complaint from my colleagues all the time). This actually looks quite natural. Hard to do with a sop. sax. Congrats. And congrats on the POTD.

Pure perfection! The perfect portrait and low key lighting, the pose and depth of field, the angle of the sax creating wonderful composition. This is a winner on all counts. Your envisioning of this creation is awesome and you carried this out perfectly. Congratulations on your POTD!!! Hope to see this in the winner's circle.
