I took up the upright (doghouse) bass a few years ago in order to play blues, and it has been a conduit into a much deeper appreciation for music and music making.
I set up the shot an a small tripod with remote and asked my wife to push the trigger. Incidently, this is also my first HDR, and though it seems like a rehash of my recent pet/people entry, it's very similar to a photo I took a few years ago with my old P&S that I've been meaning to re-do.

Whoa!! 5th?! I couldn't be happier with that finish. Thanks for the votes and the nice comments.

mcaldo: it IS a pickup, a "realist" if you're in the market for such things. It's a little prone to feedback, but almost all of them are. Overall, I've been very happy with it and would recommend it.
bassbone: I toyed with changing where I was looking, but it didn't seem to work as well for me... that and I'm not a very good model :)
Very good finish for this one. Congrats! I like that the realness of this but I wonder if having you not look at the camera could have worked even better....
