while one might rightly question the sanity of volunteering to play the harmonica for a skit in the upcoming company christmas party, particularly when one hasn't played the instrument regularly in a long time and christmas carols were never part of the regular repertoire, but hey, i've never been one to back down from the prospect of embarrassing myself in public even if it's in front of new co-workers.

who knows, if it goes over well maybe next year odin can get up on stage and play along since he sure loves to wail on the harp.

I couldn't believe that these tiny harmonicas were working ones! Basically, I'm obsessed with 'Two Penny Lane Jewellery' www.twopennylane.com/

Puck harmonica in C

...

Named after a mischievous sprite from Shakespeare’s "A Midsummer Night’s Dream,"

Part of Hohner’s ‘Historic’ range it was popular in the 1920’s due apparently to its pixie like size, yet full diatonic 10 hole range. Assembled, tested, and tuned by hand, it comes in a pretty cardboard case.

This petite harmonica has stainless steel covers and a plastic comb.

I have shot this guy before but this one I like more then the others.

His first harmonica - it is small, it makes noise - perfect

I picked up a harmonica in the key of "C" cause that's what is used on the practice CD n my new book. I got a Lee Oskar rather than a Hohner; it has a different feel, a lot bendier.

Honey Island Swamp Band rocks the harmonicas

RT (Rintarou, 1-year-old) is playing on a harmonica early in the morning.

I love this guy. He was just sitting outside his nursing home playing the harmonica. So I asked him is he minded me taking a few close ups of him.

My gang of harmonicas - a couple of ProHarps (in A, D and E) and a couple of Blues Harps (C and G). I prefer the Pro Harps. The E sounds the best ... but no-one plays in the right key to let me use it. The link below will take you to a YouTube clip featuring the sounds of the D harp.

a little toy Harmonica that I have that I use to love when I was a kid

Patrick, hierbij mijn 2e portret. Je zei bij mijn eerste upload dat er nog iets teveel groen in zat. En ik zag het niet. Tot deze upload. Ik zag gelijk wat jij bedoelde!!

Portretten fotograferen is gewoon heel veel kijken en heel veel doen.

Misschien sla ik hier wel door naar de andere kant, maar ik hoor graag jouw mening.

Misschien in tegen de regels van de fotografie, maar de keuze om de lege ruimte achter het model te zetten is een bewuste geweest.

I got my niece a harmonica, and she loved the thing, she took it to the park when we went, these are a few photos form the trip. I can't decide which i like more.

As I opened them in photo shop, and realized I liked the originals best so these are straight off the camera.

Harmonica @ Bingon

Made from the 1880s to around 1930, bell harmonicas were all the rage for a while.

I was at a Barnes & Noble in Newport News, VA during the summer of 2002 when I saw this harmonica sitting with the movie books.

Felicidade é brincar com câmera nova :P

Only a little bit disgusting.

Custom Wire wrap Harmonica case done like an owl.

Customized further with the musicians name on the back. Made from twisted, netted and hammered wire. The netting was done in such a way to appear like small feathers. His "beak" pops open to lift the lid of the case.

He's a natural...

Unusual patterned Regina tremolo. Very rare.
