Piano Solo

I am planing a European holiday next year, so naturally there will be a lot of architectural photography to be done, so I thought I'd visit one of the Sydney cathedrals and try some settings. I did few test shots and was about to leave when I heard this man playing piano. There was this huge empty cathedral, two of us and his music. I took one photo of him with his approval but without interrupting his performance.
Settings... Wait for it: hand held 1/7s at 12mm and iso800 (so I hope you don't mind bit of grain)

That saved a wretch like me!

This time we are skipping southeren Europe - simply not enough time. It will have to wait for the next time.

Very nice shot. If you're on a roll lets see what happens if you darken up that cloth thing on top of the piano (piano cover?).
So what was he playing?

I could not recognise the music - it was none of the popular classics I can identify.

Nice work!
btw, is that a staircase in the background?

I agree! Whether you darken him or brighten the background, it's going to just get better. I love the composition and being in B&W, but think my eye jumps around a little too much. Staircase, piano player, staircase, piano player... I want to have one main subject and then a secondary one...
This is a wonderful shot with a lot of potential!!
