sax on the street

[marie]

in Galway city on Tuesday last this man was playing beautiful music on a very busy street ( pedestrians only)
the background must have been the only spot on the street without a shop/store behind him
the old building looks like he is in Rome ..
(or the leaning tower of pisa type..... if it seems to be leaning)
:lol:

..almost

:)

for anyone interested I used ' craquelure' 'texture' on the picture
( in psp9)

You scared me Marie, for a moment I thought you had a miss spelling in your title and I was preparing myself for who knows what. :lol::lol:
It's a wonderful shot and I really love the effect, the building does look like it could be one of the old world buildings in Rome.

I almost got the feeling at first that all the white was like feathers or something shooting out of the saxophone. Maybe clone that out because it makes the image look soooooo busy.

[SHULTSIE!!!]

I like it... I do think the background is a tad busy, but I love whatever you did processing it.

many thanks Eagle

I do know what you mean but I somehow liked the ragged paint look on the door like it
........ especially now you mention feathers :eek:
I like that idea even better

thanks Sandy

I liked the whole look of what was behind him
I think he must have too .......it was the only half decent spot of him to stand to 'set him off'
(atmosphericly) :lol:

no need to say anything but here is the higher part of the old building which I had cropped off
:eek:

when in Rome and all that .................
lol
