Advertising postcard for a folk music store in Riga, Latvia. This is a picture of a Trideksnis, a Latvian percussion instrument. The postcard was sent to me along with a Postcrossing postcard by a member in Latvia.
A welcoming serenade for new arrivals at the walkways up to the Acropolis, by a practitioner of the Bouzouki.
Mandolin and Guitar by Lorne Collie. Nice NFB documentary of him here: www.nfb.ca/film/home_cooked_music/
Last week I shot my friend's band playing this instrument. It's just awesome and the sound it's too surreal! I loved it!
Too sad that I forgot how is called...Does anyone know?
Updated: My dear friend Vassilis V. told me that this instrument is called Sitar. Thank you so much Vassilis! :) :) :)
Built in the 1930's, an old piano is about all that remains in this old schoolroom at Carden Bottom school.
This was shot in infrared and as high dynamic range.
Location: Arkansas.

This is where I feel at home.
I spent all of yesterday working on a Spanish project that required me to make 277 flash cards with Spanish on one side and a picture on the other. Guess how long that took me. And now I have another project in that class and finals are in a week. Oh, and I did a fight scene in Drama today. I think I got a B- I totally ruined one of the moves. Oh well.
On the bright side, I'm reading The Mortal Instruments- Book Two right now (really great series, I highly recommend it) and eating a sandwich.
I got an Instagram! If you're interesting in following me, my username is sammarieenglish. Tell me if you have an Instagram so I can follow you! :)
Replaced this because I didn't like the first one. Follow up of this.
I'm still considering my options - I really get irritated by the things I can no longer do with the new Flickr. If I wanted a social networking presentation style then I would put my photography up on a social networking site!
--Huxitar, Uygur folk musical instrument from SinKiang--
It is the first time I went to a restaurant with a DSLR(clearly a symptom of flickr addiction), I can't recall the name of the uygur instrument on the patterned wall, the restaurant was run by a hometown folk, a stout uygur woman, anyway, her pretty daughter sets up the whole place
"these instruments are very unique with a history of thousands of years, stems from Ancient Silk Road, blended with Central Plain culture, Central Asia Culture and Islamic Culture."
the guitar, my new buddy, was made by a Japanese luthier under the name of Akira Sasaki in this year.
This image taken with the NASA/ESA Hubble Space Telescope shows Terzan 1, a globular cluster that lies about 22,000 light-years from Earth in the constellation Scorpius. It is one of 11 globular clusters that were discovered by the Turkish-Armenian astronomer Agop Terzan between 1966 and 1971 when he was working in France, based mostly at Lyon Observatory.
Terzan 1 is not a new target for Hubble. An image of the cluster was released back in 2015, taken by Hubble’s Wide Field and Planetary Camera 2 (WFPC2). That instrument was replaced by the Wide Field Camera 3 (WFC3) during the 2009 Hubble servicing mission. WFC3 has both superior resolving power and a wider field of view than WFPC2, and the improvement is obvious in this fantastically detailed image.

England id very strict where safety is concerned.
Here a few examples, hard hats and old fashioned sand-filled fire-buckets
This was the day the new building of BBC Sheffield started...
The Safety helmets were somewhere else, loved the placement!
All the rest is in Pickering station, manned by all the volunteers.
Love all the colours, these are good tools.
Keep safe!
I wish you a day full of beauty and thank you for your visit, Magda, (*_*)

1. Taking pictures a tool (camera), not a photographer.
2. The choice of tool limits the possibilities.
3. Experience allows him (instrument) less and less to limit their capabilities.
4. The ability to see is given only when the observer allows ...
5. The moment of observation is the real find ...
6. Training and mastering it defies. Training leads to poor imitations of the original.
7. Often the result should ripen, like wine. Although time is the understanding of the mind, therefore it is very speculative.
8. The meaning of all this is the process!
9. Let it be!

The Skally-Wags pirate band. Showcasing a few instruments and tid-bits I've been messing with recently. From left to right we have a fife (or flute), a drum, a squeeze-box (concertina), and a fiddle.
This photo fits both Wednesday and Thursday Challenges: the instruments are a bit worn and it is in BW.

This image from the NIRCam (Near-Infrared Camera) instrument on NASA’s James Webb Space Telescope shows the central portion of the star cluster IC 348. Astronomers combed the cluster in search of tiny, free-floating brown dwarfs: objects too small to be stars but larger than most planets. They found three brown dwarfs that are less than eight times the mass of Jupiter, which are circled in the main image and shown in the detailed pullouts at right. The smallest weighs just three to four times as much as Jupiter, challenging theories for star formation.
The wispy curtains filling the image are interstellar material reflecting the light from the cluster’s stars – what is known as a reflection nebula. The material also includes carbon-containing molecules known as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, or PAHs. The bright star closest to the centre of the frame is actually a pair of type B stars in a binary system, the most massive stars in the cluster. Winds from these stars may help sculpt the large loop seen on the right side of the field of view.
[Image description: Image of a star cluster and nebula, with three image details pulled out in square boxes stacked vertically along the right. Main image is showing wispy pink-purple filaments and a scattering of stars. Each of the three boxes along the right corresponds to a small detail, numbered and circled, in the main image. Box 1 (top): A detail from the lower left of the main image shows a pair of small circular pinkish-white spots on a yellowish-brown background. Box 2 (middle): A detail from the middle of the lower part of the main image shows a single small circular pinkish spot on a yellowish-brown background. Box 3: A detail from the lower right edge of the main image shows a small circular pinkish spot on a dark brown background.]

At the very beginning of the Brussels Musical Instruments Museum's creation, two collections of instruments were joined together. the original creation of the Brussels Musical Instruments Museum dates from 1 February 1877, when it was attached to the Brussels Royal Music Conservatory with the didactic purpose of showing early instruments to the students. The Old England Building, Brussels Designed by architect Paul Saintenoy, the Old England building was constructed in 1899 and is considered one of Brussels's Art Nouveau gems. The former department store now houses the Museum of Musical Instruments.
