Beuscher Aristocrat, nice. Looks like it's in good condition for a horn made sometime between 1935-41. Great shot. Like another person mentioned, the right hand position is very awkward, but that happens in a lot of sax photos, and only usually gets noticed by saxophonists anyway. Most of the the time the mouthpiece is upside-down or something. From a purely phographic perspective, I love this shot. I wonder if you also tried some with a faster shutter speed in order to freeze more of the bubbles. Nice work, and nice idea.

A real cool shot. A classic subject for black and white. The tones on the arm and face seem a little too harsh for me. A much larger aperture to narrow the depth of field would have blurred the brick wall behind and helped to isolate the jazz player.

Nice concept, possibly a tighter crop on Me sax and the bubbles would make a stronger image.

Great idea. I wish the bubbles were more prominent though (and not b/c of the challenge topic) - maybe a faster ss?? I like the b&w and compostion. The inside of the case is somewhat distracting - I might like it better with it closed (but I can't say for sure).

very fun. I like the open sax case available for tips. I wish his foot wasn't cut out of the frame though. either show it all or crop even closer for more intimacy.

This is a very nifty idea. A tighter crop would have put more emphasis on the bubbles and made a better image.
