Great mage....love the color tone, Margie! #520354

Jagadeesh Andrew Owens September 11, 2006

I would love Love LOVE to see this in black and white with someone's fingers actually on the keypads. The composition and lighting are great! #3295703

Margie Hurwich September 11, 2006

Thanks, Judy and Andrew.

Andrew, I tried b/w, but it ended up flat. As for the fingers, so many days I'm all alone...and no model to use. So, no fingers. #3296803

Kenneth Mucke September 11, 2006

Awesome image Margie...the tones are perfect and so is the framing.... #3297484

Beverly A. Wright September 14, 2006

I love this image! It takes me back in time to a friend who played the sax.
Fun times. As for the image, it's great
and I do love the tones and your
lighting looks perfect. Nice work! #3307814

Margie Hurwich September 14, 2006

Thank you, Beverly! It's my nephew's sax. He, but mostly his mother, were very surprised at how aged it was! #3308168

September 14, 2006

Hey Aunt Margie! That looks familiar to me. :-)

This photo is so good though. My mom told me I needed to clean the key pads, but if I did, it wouldn't have the aged look that it does. #3311048

Margie Hurwich September 15, 2006

You should always listen to you mother! (Although I never listened to your mother growing up.) I was happy it wasn't a shiny sax...added character! #3312416
