    G’day Rosalie,

    Great still life work here kiddo!
    A very interesting subject, arranged and composed very well indeed to add even more interest to this fine photograph’s story.
    Great lighting/exposure/processing, good use of depth of field and selective focusing, very nice subtle contrast and pleasing parchment colours.
    Great work that girl!

  • Rosalie Dale IPA replied

    Glad this musical offering meets with your approval Dennis! It was almost going onto the virtual cutting room floor along with all the others but I thought I’d just ‘fiddle’ and see what came of it. So the fact that you favourited this is quite special! Thank you!

  • Robert Elliott

    Robert Elliott

    beautiful photograph, wonderful tones, can almost hear the music

  • Rosalie Dale IPA replied

    I often think Rob it would be great to have sound with our pics – especially when shooting scenes where there is birdlife or frogs etc!! In this case, we could have the piano doing its thing! Thanks for the lovely compliments.

  • Gilberte

    Gilberte

    Very nice way of presenting music sheets Rosalie.
    It brings back memories of my mother at her grand piano.

  • Rosalie Dale IPA replied

    clever one!!! beautifully captured, great imagery, such a lovely clear sharp shot. hugsxxx

  • Rosalie Dale IPA replied

    Appreciated Hilary – thank you

  • Stuart Chapman

    Stuart Chapman

    Once again it’s the really pinsharp dof that makes this a winner for me. The pinpoint sharp focus just sprays out to readable softness and really adds to the antiquated feel.

  • Rosalie Dale IPA replied

    Patience was a virtue here Stuart – lots of shots with tiny variations in positioning paid off in the end. Thank you for taking the time to make a considered comment!!

  • GailD

    GailD

    You’ve got this work/editing/processing down pat Rosalie. Looks fabulous.

  • Rosalie Dale IPA replied

    One of the hardest things is to get an effective arrangement in the first place! This started off with some of the dead roses again etc, but in the end the very simple image worked best. Thank you for adding this to your favourites Gail.

  • Phil Thomson IPA

    Phil Thomson IPA

    Rosalie, a wonderful image of ‘old world’ charm, perfectly composed, beautiful soft lighting and a certain elegance !!!!

    Sarah Moore

    LOL – good to see all that piano music is being put to good use!!

  • Bill Fonseca

    Bill Fonseca

    Works will with your already beautiful collection.

  • Rosalie Dale IPA replied

    Tried to put a calendar together Bill and I didn’t have 12 of any theme that I was satisfied with – so maybe ‘nostalgia’ will end up being the one! Thanks for the kind words mate.

    Will you dance with me when the sun goes down
    We’ll twirl about round and round
    Along the veranda and out on the lawn
    Catch my dress on the rosebush thorns
    And will you hold me least I fall?
    I have to look up you are so tall
    And will you kiss me ’neath the moon
    And hold me still as I swoon
    Oh how you danced with me when the sun went down
    And the pianolla rolls were new

    .
    yes I know these are sheet music not pianolla rolls but it gave me the thought
    thank you for the focus
    Chookas! xXx

  • Rosalie Dale IPA replied

    What a wonderful response … thank you sweet lady … I so much remember pianola rolls (showing my age) and respond very much to your thoughts! Thanks for adding this to your favs.

    emotive, nostalgic, intriguing, captivating, engrossing and such an awesome shot!!

    I’m not in the least bit surprised that you got TWO PHOTOS OF THE DAY with it .

    Great shot. As a journalist and novelist, here I am trying to search for any available clue that suggests a printer. I’m guessing it would have been a printing press that ran individual copies ….
