Title: midnight blues
Post by: MattNQ on May 30, 2013, 06:45:54 am

From a while back - dragged my guitar & amp out.
had a play with some ideas in my head & the ambient lighting in the living room.

Planning on revisiting this idea soon, perhaps with a little more thought to the compositions, so any suggestions & critique welcome

Thanks Rob,

I was happy with the colour - the lights really brought it out well.
They normally annoy me for general use - been meaning to change them out to whiter ones, but might keep these bulbs for such occasions

I know there are better compositons waiting to be had with this subject, so this will be an ongoing project I think.

For comparison -  colour version of the monos

a different shot again - although I think the shots with the 'R' tailpiece as the main point of focus work better perhaps
