Description
To the right of this man in the original image, is an older man, almost blind, playing his fiddle. I posted his image a while ago. For this one, focus is on the other man who loves his mountain music, his eyes telling me he is feeling the notes and loving every stroke of the strings.
These guys play because they love it and it is fun. The location is an old log cabin relocated in a place devoted to old style life in the Appalachian mountains of eastern USA.

Awesome capture!
I would love to hear what he hears. If it is the old mountains songs, it is another world that few know or ever will. This is a life that is deliberately kept as it was 200 years ago with a richness just hinted at in this man's eyes. Glorious capture.
I have not heard any Bluegrass in a long time. I can imagine his strumming the guitar
fantastic harmony of textures and great mood captured
Excellent shot!!
Nicely done. I suspect that this would be appealing in a bw version as well. Wonderful personage.
Would love to hear his music and would love to see the original photo with his almost blind banjo friend. Beautiful work and beautiful to me as I live in one of these 1890's or so dwellings!
A lot of emotion in this pict Tom ....Much respect !
Excellent centring ans such charming face... I adore!
Great work!
I wonder what year martin that is ? I'm sure it sounded nice. one day, god-willing I'll look that contented playing mine at his age. cool picture, thanks. :)
Wonderfully touching, Ah to hear their songs!
Play me that mountain music. There is so much history in his face, hands and guitar. Superb capture.
I like it that there is only a partial view of him and that you have included the textures and colors of the place he sits. It adds such atmosphere to the shot. I can almost smell the hay and the country in this.
