[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
I told this cat to really make a good pose so I could take a picture and then get some big time points on Trek Lens.

Actually I'm kidding. This is really titled "Halloween Trumpet" and it's one of the pictures I'm selling in my first little gallery opening that's coming up in a few weeks. Wish me luck.

haha. Nice title. It's never going to work though. :P

Great shot. Very NYC/Jazz/Cool vibe. I love the lighting and colors. Great pose too. I hope you make good money at your show. Then you can start actually tipping those subway performers that you always take photos of.

cool note daniel. very funny. i like the deep saturated colours. you have handled the camera well minimizing blurness on the photo despite of the low light condition. thanks for sharing.

Hihihi!! Like the title very much!!
Also like the picture. He really makes loads of effort and you captured it well. Good red tones. makes nice atmosphere.
Good luck with the Exposition.

Take care, Stef :))

lovely red tones, and very intimate composition. For sure deserve a big smile...

This is a really cool shot Daniel!!! The colors and lighting are very complimentary to the feel of this photograph. These intimate sessions are wonderful and you have captured the spirit very well. Good luck with your opening. You deserve to do well.

Great work w/ the low light.
Although there isn't any in my gallery,
I love working in minimal light situations
.
But hey, Great job on this shot, perhaps though, a tighter crob er..crop ...would be better i think. Rotating the subject more to a 45' angle..But this is fine
Peace

This guy vaguely reminds me of Christopher Reeves as Clark Kent.
Clark Kent playing jazz! Funny stuff.

It's a good shot, though I would have tried a different composition or a shallower DOF if your lens could do it because the background is distracting, but the excellent shadows and the light help bring him out. Best wishes on your exhibit.
