Katarina, this is beautiful. I have a shot similar to this, but I like yours much much better with the selective focus. You have such creative ideas! I like your clothes in the closet and the roller up paper with the pins and so many more!! Very inspirational :)

As much as I personally dislike those little earbuds that come with an ipod (threw mine out), this is a terrific b/w composition, and a great prop to go with the sheet music! Congratulations! #8642380Sign up for an interactive online photography course to get critiques on your photos.
