Well, ... I think there is not much too repair ;-)

Wonderful shot, . I like this one

Lachlan Kent, about 1 year ago

LOL! The title sounds like the disclaimer often used when advertising pianos for sale in classifieds. Col image… sad loss.

midzing, about 1 year ago

great shot, well done

Andy Heatwole, about 1 year ago

:-) This one would need one heck of a disclaimer. There were actually two in the church. I don’t know why someone didn’t remove them before they were destroyed by the elements.

Jing3011, about 1 year ago

Lina, about 1 year ago

Xavier Shay , about 1 year ago

Bought it on a card

Basia McAuley, about 1 year ago

This is brilliant but I find this image quite sad as I can’t believe how such a beautiful instrument can get so destroyed. Beautifully captured,

Powerful image of an abandoned instrument! Sad but effective. Great capture!

rallenwalker, 9 months ago

Outstanding shot! I love the depth and richness of this piece! Even though it presents an image of destruction, there is an elegance…

cutebaby, 9 months ago

truly magnificent…everything talking picturesquely….very very effective plus emotive

there are a lot of themes within….

drama….historical effects….happiness…sadness….abandonment…

many inspiring materials

andrew cowell, 9 months ago

fabulous presentation!

Martie Venter, 9 months ago

As my mom is in the piano restoring and tuning business, I have learnt a lot about pianos. They are beautiful and fascinating instruments. It’s amazing to think that an average piano action contains 7500 moving parts, and that the 230 strings exert a combined tension of approximately 18 tons!
Your wonderful capture of this derelict piano conveys a lingering sense of melancholy, of the fragility, transcience and ephemeral beauty of life. Exquisite light and toning, an amazing image! (Wonder whether my mom and her partner would consider it restorable?)

Jodie Carruthers, 9 months ago

Beautiful.
Oh, the stories….

Hannah Nicholas, 7 months ago

When I first looked at this, my first impression was a piano that had been really well ‘loved’, maybe too much….years and years of people playing and playing…and now put to rest. So much history in this photo. I just love it.

great shot. I have a strong urge to take up piano again… cheers
