I’m at a jazz club with a couple of friends and the band is just great. We’re sitting up front, and I’m next to the baby grand piano and near the bass sax player, who has tucked the huge case for his sax under the piano. There is a nice bright red light underneath the piano, and it’s lighting two sides of the piano leg and the textured, sparkly sax case, and this composition jumps out at me. I’m really happy with this photo, as it brings you in and encourages you to linger.
