Striking a Cord by Elizabeth Bravo

Striking a Cord by

At the original Starbucks, Downtown Seattle, you will always find street musicians. It seems a bit dark in that corner so I was able to focus on this wonderful hand in mid motion. I did just a little bit to darken that back ground for drama, but otherwise this is close to the original shot.

E L I Z A B E T H B R A V O
I am inspired by everything in life.
Nature, landscape, city life and more.
25 years as a flight attendant lets me see life from every angle. On the road my camera and Mac are my constant companions. At home, it’s hard to find me with out a paint brush in hand.
No matter what, as long as I am creating I am content.
Thanks for viewing my work!!

    Wow, the Bass looks metallic. Amazing image with beautiful color and tone, Elizabeth.

  • I have seen this guy and his bass several times and it does look metallic, but can a bass be made of metal?? I don’t know. I love how it looks against the dark. Thanks for the comment Frannie.

    Great shot Elizabeth. I like the position of the hand. It looks like an aluminium bass to me. Check out this link

  • Denis, that link is SO COOL!!!! I love it!! I will add that above later when I get a moment……..I had no idea and just wondered when Frannie asked about it. I love how it came out in the shot. Thanks so much for the wonderful comment:))))
