Better photos of new member's S-100

[rampside]

I finally got around to taking some nicer pics of my '73 S-100 carved nature boy thanks to recent thread about How to photgraph your guitar and killdeer's advice on being creative.

The ray of sunlight shining through the skylight in my sauna provided the perfect opportunity to get artsy.

Peace

Super shots, Terry.
Love the angles and the light. :wink:

Very creative,

Beautiful contrast between the nature boy finish and the weathered sauna wood. Really makes the nature boy pop. Well done.

Shooting outside, and/or with as much natural light as possible, is always good.

Thanks for the compliments guys.

Here's another play on angle. light and shadow.

Great shots & great guitar! Sauna isn't bad either.

We love our sauna. Traditional (no elec. or running water), 12 ft. X 12 ft. (includes changing room), constructed entirely out of northern white cedar, wood fired etc.... We have an annual tradition in the spring when the ice on the lake pulls 30 ft. or so away from the shore, we fire up the sauna, get good and hot, then take the plunge. Quite invigorating to say the least.

I wonder how many LTG'ers have sauna?

Whether or not you have one, how do you pronounce sauna. Some say SOW-NA and some say SA-NA.

All this talk about sauna, and I must post this one.

After all, there's the Minnesota connection, and Hibbing, to boot!

Long time fan of PHC, I am, :wink:

*Minnesota's my second-favorite state, BTW.

SOW-NA would be the proper Finish pronounciation and that would be correct because they invented it.

That's an old classic from Prairie Home Companion by Garrison Keillor, right there in your home state. :wink:
