Simple Can Be Better
There’s no missing the focal point in this image. The focus is is on the hand, not the guitar but the two go together to tell the gentle story. Christine chose to place the subject in soft, filtered natural light placed against a dark background to prevent any extraneous objects from distracting the eye. A narrow depth of field provided sharp focus on the hand with a gradual softening as the neck with the head and tuning keys points to the upper right. The final touch is to render the scene in black and white adding to the classical look. Overall, a very pleasing image.Camera: Canon EOS REBEL T3 with an EF-S18-ffmm f/3.5-5.6 ISII Lens
