You hum it son, I'll play it.

Today we've been stripping paint, which is not only extremely exciting but leaves little time for anything else. Having said that, yesterday we collected the remains of an old piano and I also removed the 'mechanism' from it to use as something of a 'garden feature'...which is why you're only getting this shot today.
Excellent photo, lovely composition, awesome title, fabulous caption - what more does one want? Nothin', I tell ya.

Nice image!!

Love the DoF in this -- looks like a sound board that needed some attention. Now I'm imagining it with greenery growing through it.

@taffy Thanks very much - I have an old parking meter too so if anyone comes over for a meal they have to pay $2 and play a recognisable tune...
@photographycrazy Thanks very much :)
@888rachel Quite possibly, although I need help to lift it in to place...so heavy

If you hand wooden balls on string in front of it, it becomes a very musical wind chime. :)

@swillinbillyflynn That would drive me insane...however I do have a very small rubber mallet for those who wish to indulge...
