Taken in Cambria California with my Nikon D-300 ISO 200 1/000 sec.@ f/4/8. I liked the rustic look and the garden along with the Sousaphone on the wall. I thought the reds and greens where complementary to each. other.

Cute and very pretty scene. However it doesn't really fit the category of M&N guidelines so will have to move it to POP. Feel free to email me if you have any questions about this.

I like this, William! I like how the foliage sort of frames the cottage, the colors, the justaposition of forms associated with mankind -- the straight lines -- and those of nature -- which also have a symmetry.

But the trombone is what makes this so special. Just imagine how this scene will look when it acquires a nice, green patina !!

Great shot, and thanks for sharing it; lots to see here.

Quite an interesting homestead. However, the musical instrument is not a trombone, but a Sousaphone - a marching version of a concert tuba - the lowest pitched member of the Brass family.
