    Errr...pretty cool. Looks like the camera is not really parallel to the guitar though.

    But, seriously, I see it. Does it come up for anyone else?

    So now you see it.

    That was my initial problem (parallel). I thought I corrected it in "lens correction", but not enough.

    Nice and graphic. I like that style of photo taking (though I don't attempt it myself).

    When I saw the title, I was expecting a guitar made out of slinkies

    Re: Guitar

    Arne,

    I really like your perspective in this picture. The contrast between dark & light and straight & curve is very cleverly done. Very imaginative and creative. Wish I thought of that!

    For improvement wise, I think a bit of straightening would make the picture more tidy. For example, the G-string should be aligned vertically. Also, I think the picture can be shifted horizontally somewhat to align the guitar to the eyesight.

    Next time, maybe try the same picture with the strings strumming/ringing. Might create an interesting picture and also another contrasting feature-- motion vs stillness

    Respectfully,
