ISO 100, 100mm macro, f/32, 30.0 sec I spent my childhood hidden behind a violin. I played in my first year of college and decided it was time to do something different.
It only made sense that my daughters would pick one up as well, but they both quit once they entered high school. This violin went into storage and when I went to retrieve it for the Project 52 assignment, I opened the case only to discover that all of the glue had disintegrated in the Pacific NW humidity.
A sad day to say the least, this violin belonged to my great uncle in Colorado. It had been around for years and years.

What a shame, any way to get it repaired?
ReplyDeletewow, that is sad, but I bet there is a place you can get it restored, maybe? super textures and light!
ReplyDeleteSad for the violin, but you created a wonderful, warm, and sympathetic picture of it!
ReplyDeleteReally like the lines and tones. Hoping you can get it repaired.
ReplyDeleteSorry to hear about your violin. I too hope it can be repaired.
ReplyDeleteReally outstanding photo!
What a sad discovery, but like everyone has said I am more than sure you can find a place to restore it. It is a beautiful instrument!
ReplyDeleteOh, I am so saddened about your violin! I, too played all through my childhood until college. My daughter played for 3 years and when she quit, I picked mine back up again. I am totally sentimental about instruments, and I hope you can get it restored.
