    Funny how one's appreciation for things changes throughout life.
    I always thought classical music was for grandparents and old people, kinda like knitting rolleyes1.gif

    I have a nephew who is a very talented young musician, and plays in an Orchestra, the first time I ever heard him play at this level I was just stunned at how magnificent musical instruments can be.

    I see your images Daniel and I'm glad you are open to all kinds of things.

    This is nice shot, but Im sure the orginal item itself looks much better hanging on your wall :D ......... Skippy (Australia)
