I really love this photo and your violin X from a couple days ago. Fantastic idea, it took me a couple moments to realize what I was looking at. I like that about it . The sunlight coming in is beautiful. Depth of field and color look great as does the contrast. The only thing that distracts me slightly, is the darkness of the corners, more so on the right side of the frame. Maybe I would notice it less if the dark tones in the upper third center of the photo were a wee bit darker. Beautiful job. Great shot!

It looks like the inside of an old abandoned temple!

I never realized the inside of a cello would look so interesting. Also your lighting and picture makes it look like we're in an ancient palace, which is amazing.

Interesting idea and interesting result (in a good way, just to be clear).

This is pretty fantastic! I thought I was looking at some natural landscape carved by eons of water flow... or the inside of some ancient tomb. Finally, I read the title! Absolutely fantastic. I love everything about it!

Beautiful!
If I were small enough, this would make a great apartment xD

This is a beautiful composition, and I particularly love the lighting.
If you didn't state that it was the inside of an instrument, I'm not sure if I could tell you exactly what I was looking at, and I love that about this piece.
Keep up the great work! I'm loving all of these works.

Although it's only a hunch, I suspect that actually playing the instrument can produce intriguing patterns of resonance in collective dust particles that hover in this crepuscular light
that would nobly serve to draw the viewer deeply into your image(s) making chamber music a uniquely synesthetic adventure in architectural-macro photography. But
even if my suspicion is only wishful thinking without a particle of empirical validity, it might be fun to try as a futile experiment in the course of the absolutely wonderful work you're doing
with instruments, insects and breathtaking imagination.

That is a very intriguing idea, I seen incredible patterns forming on vibrating surfaces or liquids, yet capturing that on the dust inside might be impossible, , first is a long exposure photo, this has a 30 sec long exposure, and is a tridimensional space, on a surface is easy to see patterns, but on space for sure can't be so regular to be visible in a photo, maybe in a movie...or maybe particles sediment on the floor under a continuous powerful note...

Yes! Although little EXIF data would have prevented my faux pas, but where's the fun in that?
An alternative experiment; a tiny violin placed within the cello, in precisely the same orientation to light such that it's f-holes mirror the cello's relation to your light source.
I think that would provide a weaker impression of nested microcosms shrinking at a 1:1000 scale, ever-smaller than the visible chamber, but implicitly linking discrete worlds in harmonic resonance.
A continuous powerful tone applied to a 200-year-old cello might result in significant consequences; Bloody photographer ejected from museum by angry curator.
