I saw this guy playing in San Diego. Never saw one of these instruments nor had I ever heard of it.

Wow, thats not a Musical Instrument!! It looks like it belongs in a Hospital Unit for Breathing problems for patients......

Great Shot!! Did you happen to shoot more of this Gentleman? I am looking forward to seeing more of this series if you got it?

Hi guys, thanks so much for the comments! glad you liked it. Mark, it was very interesting to see him play. He was a one-man band. He had his own beat going with some kind of musical things wrapped around his ankles that made noise when he tapped his feet. Unfortunately, I only took a couple of pictures. There were a lot of people around so I went to the front, got a couple of shots and then moved out of the way. Michael, i'm not sure I have what it takes to do that continuous breathing stuff (i think that's how he described it) In fact, I don't think i'm capable of playing ANYTHING musical Anyway, here is one more. Almost the same thing but a little closer. I didn't pay attention to how I processed the first but I tried to do the same thing with the second

Nice picture. Didgeridoos are neat instruments especially the history behind them. That circle (continuous) breathing aint easy to learn, at least for me. I passed out a few times trying it a decided I would stick with guitar. LOL

Another great photo!

I'm not musical either but you don't have to be to play the didge! Circular breathing isn't too difficult, you're just breathing in through your nose while using your cheeks like a bag on bagpipes....

I used the black and white option in CS3 for this along with levels and curves adjustment and USM. I don't have Silver Efex but I like what i've seen using it.

cman, lol I can imagine that I might feel the same way. Thanks for the comments

michael, If you say you don't have to be musical, i just may have to give it a try sometime
