Mandolin Machine Heads       ©2008 LindyB
Panasonic DMC-FZ18       3rd place, 187 points

USM		       Extra Info: The mandolin is at least 100 years old and is in dire need of restoration. The machine heads are in better condition than the rest of it. The back of the mandolin is beautifully hand-painted, though faded, and I unfortunately couldn't get a decent shot of it.

Dec 1, 2008		     I question your choice of subject. Would not showing more of the mandolin be better?

Update; lindyB, I did not see your extra info before I posted my original comment. Now that I've read it, nevermind! :-)

Nov 28, 2008		     It's just amazing to see even a small part of such an old musical instrument. I like the blue background as it seems to give a moody look to the wood. TT~!

Nov 28, 2008		     Excellent; composition (angel and crop), sharpness and lighting as well as the combination of the object with the blue background; good luck
