Macro Mondays - Musical Instruments
My wife and I do not have any musical instruments in our house, so I had to take my camera to church with me. I tried photographing a few different instruments, but this was my favorite. It is a tambourine with a transluscent blue plastic frame and brass zils (metal jingles). HMM
The guitar, made by hand by the late, great Ken Manning, is 3.5 inches long and actually can be played.
This instrument is also used for the Macro Mondays theme torn about 2 years ago, November Rain
HMM 😄
I've been playing the guitar for almost 7 years now. I don't play as often as I did when I started but I still enjoy it when I have the time :)
Taken for ODC: Instrument
[EXPLORE]
The 9/12/23 Crazy Tuesday theme is Musical Instrument.
In 1951, my not-yet-wife Sammy wanted to take piano lessons. Unfortunately, her parents sent her to a fancy music school where she learned theory and all sorts of highfalutin' stuff that bored her to tears. All she wanted was to be able to play the popular songs of the time.
However, as part of her music schooling, she had to make a flute out of a length of bamboo, and here it is. And I could actually toot a tune out of it. Sort of....

"Listen to this song:"
This is an image of my favourite writing instruments up to date, which I use with my Moleskine notebooks.
I was intrigued with the contrast showing on the Rotring Core rollerball pen on the bottom left side so I composed the whole image around it.

Montblanc Meisterstück No. 149 fountain pen:
I think this is the largest type of the Meisterstück series - I bought it at a duty free shop at Amsterdam Airport in 1989 on the way home from a business trip. I wanted a fountain pen that I knew I could use throughout my life.
Tombow XPA ballpoint pen:
I got this pen this summer. I wanted a compact and tough, reliable ballpoint pen, and one without a cap, so that I could start taking notes easily even when I'm standing up, like during an outdoor field trip or a speech at a cocktail party - this one fits all those conditions. It's a pen that's designed for outdoor, heavy duty use, and its ink (or the tube of the refill) is supposed to be so special that you can even write on a damp piece of paper, though I haven't tried that yet. You pull the back end of the pen towards you and the pen point comes out rather than knocking the end.
Faber-Castell Grip 2001 pencil:
Currently my most favorite writing instrument.
Rotring Core rollerball pen with Signo 0.38 black ink:
Comfortable to use. (In my opinion, the Signo 0.38 is the best gel ink for Moleskine notebooks.)
