No idea who, but these are great photos.
ReplyDeleteGreat series of photos! No idea who they are, but I love to see musicians' hands at work. Nicely done.
ReplyDeleteGreat shots and a very good idea for a theme of photos. It's impossible to guess whose hands they are although I'll try and guess the third set of hands on the guitar belong to Johnny Cash. Am I completely off the mark?
ReplyDeleteMaria,
ReplyDeletenot Johnny Cash, though this guitarist does live in Nashville.
I thought regular readers at Music Road especially might care to have a go at figuring out who these artists are, as I've written about each of them more than once, here and elsewhere.
Brette and Glennia,
ReplyDeletethanks for the kind words. glad you enjoyed the photos.
You can almost hear the music with the sense of movement conveyed here.
ReplyDeleteI love your intimate look at hands. Very unique.
ReplyDeleteGreat photos. Our wedding photographer took a close up of the organist's hands, which was lovely.
ReplyDeleteI stink at these types of guessing games, but I'm loving the photos. There's just something about pics taken at live music events that seems so visceral, and full of movement.
ReplyDeleteNo clue. But great photos - so expressive and wonderful idea.
ReplyDeletePhotographing hands is such a good idea, and not just for musicians. We took some pictures of my husband's hands on my preggo belly and they look really good! As a photographer, I want to experiment with this more.
ReplyDeleteI love these photos...they offer a look at music from a totally different perspective. I'd love to read more about what was being played, the venue, mood etc. Very nice.
ReplyDeleteYour beautiful photos have inspired me to get closer when I'm doing travel photos. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteYour photos are beautiful.
