Default Colour and Lovely Music.

Hello everyone. Lindyannajones posted her street musicans and prompted me to find this picture. I was watching these Peruvian Native Indians performing in our market place here in Preston and I was very impressed with their lovely flute and pipe music. I watched them for an hour they were so good. I have also been learning a little about cropping and pp.
So, here's what I came up with. I hope you enjoy.

The link is not the actual performers but give a good idea of the sound.

YouTube - AMERICANTA - Native South American Pan-Flute Music

My attempt at playing

Goodmorning Dave, what awesome shots these are, and so colourful. There is so much creativity in these native dancers, and they put their very heart and soul into everything they do. Great captures indeed !

Hi Dave, you have captured the performance beautifully. The colours and the atmosphere come through strongly. The coloured frames look great and match perfectly.
