"Artistic" photo of my Rick 340

[ric340JG]

I took this picture of my 340/6JG over the holidays. The little color spots all over it are a reflection from our Christmas tree. I'm not sure whether it qualifies as "artistic," but I thought it was interesting. I hope you like it.

Groovy. You should enter that into next year's calendar photo contest...would make for a nice "Ms. December"...

Yes, very nice picture! And yes, I think it's quite artistic too, maybe it's the reflection of the lights...

Thank you everyone for your kind responses.

The "shine" is a result of polishing with Scratch-X and Zymol, as per Paul's instructions, for which I am eternally grateful!! A friend who saw my 340 said it had a finish like a Steinway piano! Cant' get better than that!

As for entering the picture in the calendar competition, I'd like that, but I think Paul said that only landscape format was acceptable, which makes sense (unless he can fit the days on one side of the picture). In any case, I have the full sized picture on my hard disc, if anyone would like to use it as a desktop wallpaper, for example. I have a pivot monitor and I use it in "portrait" format, and this picture fits perfectly and makes a really great "holiday" desktop.

Here is a recent Christmas picture of another one of my guitars, a Burns Apache 50th Anniversary (I'm a huge fan of the Shadows and their music). It's a different "cup of tea" but it's still a really nice guitar.

I hope you like it.

Cool, a different sort of Lightshow effect!

Your photos capture the Holiday spirit.

Thank you Joey and Rich!!

Maybe I will try making a landscape photo for the calendar competition. Perhaps next year's calendar will be guitars only!!

P.S. This photo could be made even more "festive" with PhotoShop. Something like this.
