Nicely done. My only quibbles might be the cut off corner of the suitcase and the angle seems slightly distorted to me.

Such a good subject, but background is not right for it, I still like it

Comment by rdebruyn:
It's always the case that looks worn. The instruments really stand the test of time.

Comment by Mike_Adams:
You have to love an old trumpet and a beat up case. Great take on the challenge. I like the way you used the light. Additionally it is difficult to balance light without blowing the highlights completely out on a shiny subject like a trumpet, and I think you did a great job keeping that pretty well balanced. My one area of critique is the crop. Cutting off the bottom left of the case pretty clearly takes away from the image. Still a great shot :)

Seems a bit washed out? Maybe some contrast would help. I like the setup.

I like the concept a lot (and I have a very similar looking trumpet sitting in a very similar looking case in my own basement!). Compositionally, I think this would have been better had the lower corner of the case not been cut off. It feels like there's too much space at the top of the shot.

Good subject matter, but maybe more angle or dramatic lighting would help. Comes off to me as a picture of an old trumpet, not so much "end of an era"

i think this would be nice if you waited for the right light, and the right sky.
