Because being a musician and not playing withers your soul.

Taken on the spur of the moment when the light was falling just right.

She's wearing my hat and playing my guitar, by the way; handy props.

More musical instruments. I didn't want to do this tonight really but given that it's heaving it down outside and the things that I'd been planning to photograph for your edification and enjoyment require rather better weather I was left without much choice or inspiration, so more instruments it was.

On the left is the classical guitar (nylon strung) which belonged to my mum. On the right is my steel-string semi-acoustic and in the middle is my mandolin, which was a leaving-high-school gift from my dad and which badly needs restringing.

About

Graham Binns is a writer, photographer, musician and software developer from Lancaster, England, with far too much hair, a penchant for odd t-shirts and a magnificent hat. He has been making things up for as long as he can remember and has been making code work for long enough to make a living from it.

He has written one novel, which is in the process of composting, and is working remembering how to write before embarking on a second. In the meantime, he photographs things, since it's easier not to have to make the world up in his head all of the time.
