Interesting Tid-bit: A violin is the first larval stage of the insect that is a string-instrument. This stage is followed by the Viola, and finally, the adult form, the Cello. The Bass is a strange mutation which has no revelance to this cycle. The guitar is an example of Batesian Mimicry. Pianos are large variants adapted for cold Northern winters, and mandolins are a variety found near the equator. This was decided by a committee of string players and other orchestra members on February the 4th, 2011 and is final. Thank you.

The guitar has been my enemy for quite awhile now. It has been the one thing that I have always had trouble learning. I can learn anything and everything else, but somehow the guitar was the one thing that eluded me with each attempt. Until now...
I decided to pick up the 6 String Instrument once again. And with the help of my very good friend Dean Wolfe, I am making huge strides already. I'm feeling a lot more confident and determined this time around. It is so much nicer to be able to have someone right in front of you telling you what you are doing wrong instantly. Without having to search and wait to try and find an answer.
So big thanks to Dean and whoever else will be giving me tips along the way like Brad Barrett and Dickie Martin :)
This one's taken after the light softened out as the afternoon waned.
No post processing done apart from a little bit of curves in ufraw while importing the RAW file.
Taken with Olympus EPL 1 with Leica Summilux 50mm f/1.4 pre-Asph. Picture taken straight from the camera, no editing or cropping.
p.s. Thank you Daniel, for lending me your Leica lens to try on Olympus EPL1, resulting in more apparent bokeh characteristics as compared to Nikon Series E 50mm, f1.8 lens.
I had a chance to visit Kamimoto Strings in San Jose's Japantown yesterday. One of the interns on the Web team at SCU works there part-time. She showed the owners my portfolio and they were curious about how I might shoot their shop. I spent about an hour shooting around the shop with the TtV rig, the Lensbaby Composer/Sweet 35 combo, the GF1 and Pinwide, and the E-PL3 with the Oly 17mm 2.8 and Panny 7-14mm f4. I took a few iPhone shots, too. They were pretty busy, and I tried not to get in the way, but I think I captured the essence of their business...
