The Band Concert

One of the joys of my recent visit with my son and his family in NY state was going to my granddaughter Lucy's band concert. She plays the trumpet, so she's not visible in this shot, but I liked how the director commanded all the students' attention and how much fun they all had performing.

Like what you did with this - glad you were able to be there for her concert

[Diana]

What a great shot and wonderful colours. How thrilling to be at a concert where your granddaughter is playing.

[Steve Chappell]

Wow, amazing processing on this, and great to be able to see your granddaughter in concert

[Pyrrhula]

My wife and oldest son a saxafoon. Great editing on this nice capture.

[wendy frost]

Great capture and processing and great you had the opportunity to be there for Lucy.

[Babs]

Must have been an interesting concert. Love the processing.

[Kathy]

Playing with the painterly effects again I see. The texture of this is almost tangible.

This looks like a famous painting to me with great characters in the band! Quite interesting! fav

How nice to be able to attend the concert. It is great to see the skills they learn and to witness their performances. This is a wonderful edit, Ann

Thank you Milanie, Diana, Sw, Ferry, Wendy, Babs, Kathy, Lynn, Katy, and Harry! Night Cafe has brought out the inner artist in me- I sometimes take a picture now knowing I will be turning it into a painting that I naturally would not be able to paint from lack of ability!
