Went round for a wander at lunch time. Some "man sized" guitars on the South Bank near the assembly and Tower Bridge.

I like both shots, but the first is a bit distracting as i had to look for a minute to realize the multi colored thing on the left side was another guitar. They are both very Unique, the first looks like selective coloring in photoshop almost!

Were they all exposed for the blue sky with a narrow depth of field?
Nice shots.
I'm a guitarist, so any guitar shots will win me :-)

I did do shots with the closest guitar full in the frame but found it boring so decided on posting this one which is a much closer, kind of over the shoulder, shot. Yeah it does look a little like selective colouring. Surprisingly, the floor and walls are that colour, great for metering. Thanks for commenting.

Not exposed for sky, see the grey of the floor and walls, well I used that to expose off in manual and left the settings as is. Yes, I used a small aperture to get the depth of field but I manually focused slightly less than infinity.

Thanks for looking and commenting.
