Description
A loved friend loves Bluegrass music. I shot this of his banjo case at a small festival in 2005. The powder helps his hand slide on the instrument neck during outdoor concerts.
Play or not, to listen to a bunch of pick and grin folks jamming is fun for me. Add a good barbeque sandwich and sunshine and smiles are all around.

Fantastic work!!!!!!!!!!!!!
well shot tom
Superb photo and this one hits close to home for me as in my area this is a common site with Branson and Silver Dollar City filled with such performers. For me growing up I was a big fan of Lester Flatt & Earl Scruggs. (Yeah, I know none of you have ever heard of them, but they did make a few appearances on the Beverly Hillbillies lol)
Splendid shot. Nice composition.
Banjos are not easy to learn but they have such wonderful sound capabilities. I love this shot. It has a story in it.
Good one Tom, like a tone and a great subject.
i never thought of baby powder when i play great idea and black and white capture!!!
excellent b/w image my friend, great work !!
Nice work! I can hear the music already.
Very nice detail, I like the attention to the black and white contrast between objects. I also like the texture of the case.
Quite a striking image.
Isn't it strange how a single image can conjure up so many senses. The smell of the grren grass outside, laughter and happy people, Powder, The inside of a music instrument case, calloused fingers, such a wonderful myriad. Thanks for the journey. Wonderfully done.
