The Camera Lies
Contrary to the photographic evidence above, I cannot play the piano. I can pick out tunes and block out chords but I cannot make it dance and sing.
I was taking some shots of the piano at church earlier this week and, having got a neat angle on the keyboard with wide-angle perspective (kit lens at 18mm) giving a dramatic diagonal flow to the lines, decided to add some hands to the mix.
However, while I don't play piano and don't have any immediate plans to learn (I'm still working on being a beginner with the flute), I am a musician and so this shot will serve as my latest fiftytwo self portrait.
