Great shot, Lorraine. I like the light, angle and shimmering silver tone. This makes for a fantastic capture.

arlene from United States
Drums without the drummer. I get a kind of empty feeling, yet this could also be a promise of the music to come.

@arlene: Oh not not feeling empty, I could have photoshopped a drummer in there lol thanks a lot Arlene

I like these silver drum cases. If they help bring Spring on, then I say do whatever works.

@Viewfinder: they looked really good through the window ;) thanks a lot VF
Anthony Lambert from Bielefeld, Germany
Nice kit !! I feel like grabbing a pair of sticks and having a bit of a bash myself !!
Only problem is I´m left handed so we´ll have to set the drums up the other way round...

@Anthony Lambert: I can always turn it around with photoshop lol thanks a lot Anthony :)
Anna.C from LA ROCHELLE, France

Silver-plated drums to celebrate the new birth of spring ... what could be better?
I love the light and the angle you used!

António Pires from Lisbon, Portugal
Lorraine, drums are not for Spring, are for melting the snow down. Flutes, clarinets, violins, guitars, yes, they can call Spring. Anyway, Spring is on the way... :)
