 The light wood on this harp seemed to jump out at the audience, espcialy against the player's black outfit. I used a fill-flash because of the backlighting. The shot was cropped to the narrow proportion to emphasize the tallness of the instrument and slimness of the player, and to get rid of a lot of junk around the harp. Other than cropping, the levels were adjusted and the hue shifted slightly toward the yellow.

The model's pose and facial expression doesn't help this photo.

The fading border is quite distracting

Beautiful harp, but just not yellow enough for me to vote it higher...

feathered borders are against the rules of basic editing.
