[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I went to the horse races yesterday to practice panning and see if I could get some interesting pictures. Before each race there is a trumpeter who plays and lets everyone know the race is only minutes away. The Trumpeter is very distinctive, dressed in a traditional outfit, playing a long trumpet.

I liked the composition of the trumpeter’s hands and instrument as it extended towards the microphone.

Hi Roger,
Very, very good shot. Great sharpness on FP and nice reflections over the trump.
Lovely presentation
Regards
Raimundo

What? no BW photo? No biker, pretty girl or model? B-)....I LOVE the Bokeh here Roger! Did you win? I hope you bet on the right horse! Good job with this long crop, perfect for this!

Hi Roger. Very interesting idea and great cut. Excellent DOF. Molto bravo.

Hi Roger

Very good use of a shallow dof, with good sharpness on the bugle, & effective tight framing. I like the wide angled, panoramic crop. Good color & saturation. Tfs!

Hi Roger.

Very interesting POV and great use of DOF. I thought that "alarm" was always a recording in our modern times. I'm glad it is not always the case.

dear Roger,
a beautiful portion in the race field,
and a shining moment in the race time.
an excellent shot in fine day light,
silver metalic reflections and red wear make wonderful contrast.
I can hear its sound lively.
thank you,
Akihisa
