Description
I love the sound of the banjo -- even when I play it. I bought this one used and played for a while with an informal group of old time music lovers. My interests and time turned elsewhere but the banjo still puts me in a good mood whenever I hear it. Its a Happy instrument.

Jean, Another great musical instrument photograph love the way the banjo is angled for this shot and again your use of that deep dark background is perfect putting all of the viewer's attention on the photo of the banjo. Great details and clarity in this shot along with capturing the colors on the banjo. Also enjoyed the write-up in the description box very informative. Excellent shot, voted, google, tweet, FB promoted, selected from USA Artist News promotional thread

I love this one too! Beautiful portraits! Or "still life", I guess, but the instruments have so much character I think "portrait".

A well loved 5 string. My dad played one like this, and entertained the family when I was a kid. I love the black backgroud, giving full attention to the banjo.

Thanks, Dick, as you can see, this one has had a lot of use. I love the sound it makes.
