erm...nothing much, a bit too little space on the right side, a general title such as 'guitar' doesn't say much. doesn't invite me to take a 2nd look.

Tionghan ... what's her name?!
Seriously, though, as her partner, what's good?
Isn't it the comfortable tactile feedback? The
feeling that at day's end you can settle down
to a comfortable session picking the strings
so you can "find your levels"?
I'm a 'cellist (and a pianist), so I know - this
is NOT portrayed in the (i) vertical stance
of the guitar, (ii) the distracting space on the
left, (iii) the cable on the right and the stand
at the bottom. In fact, TO ME, it's sort of cold,
impersonal and lacks a "can you feeeeel me?"
invitation!

Suggestion ... get in closer; lose the stand;
let the guitar, maybe from the bridge upwards
both draw my eye towards the head, and
give me a feel for the texture, the grain?
Don't make me stand far away!!!

Keep it up ... ... your intentions are good,
but don't be blind to the distractions in the
frame!

hey thanks for the comments.. really appreciate .. ok the time when i was shooting this pic i was doing 'homework' for my music 'chores' this pic is somehow more to explain my feelings towards my overall feeling for music. and the best person to express this feeling with me is my Miu..( her name)
the pic describe loneliness, tiredness, a seasoned lifestyle which i experienced after many being a full time musician.. the far distance described my feelings about passion for music .. somehow getting further (it sort of happen when your passion becomes your job and your job sucks) and the texture will be my confused state of mind and vision of it .

My 2 cents worth.

1. Get rid of the wire on the right frame. Spoils the picture for me.
2. Move the guitar to the left a bit.
3. If possible, play with the light source and move the Guitar's shadow more to the left. The height of the shadow looks OK.

I like the grainy B&W feel.

Regards

Your suggested title, "While My Guitar Gently Weeps"?

No copyright from the Beatles, of course!
