The French horn is an instrument with curves! What rich sound can be teased from those long, winding tubes of brass — and oh, how the sound does carry above the rest of the symphony if a note is missed!
Acknowledgements: Appreciation and thanks go to my son’s French horn which was the patient subject for the impromptu lunch hour photo shoot, inspired by this week’s challenge theme.
Ciao! ~ Kat

Well done! You certainly captured curvaciousness in all her glory! I love the way the light catches right at the bend……A beautiful instrument indeed. I think I shall always remember these pics, should I ever see a French horn again. xoJulia

The French horn has that rich sound to match its physical beauty — she was quite the cooperative subject.

The French Horn didn’t start tooting to get you to hurry up with the photo shoot? Lovely curves, Kat!

French horns have such power and beauty able to soar over the orchestra. I love Tschaikovky’s usage of the french horn. Lovely

So true — when you think of how empty some pieces would be without the horn part, the horn’s power becomes clear.

Why thank you, John — my son had a horn lesson scheduled today, so when I saw the photo challenge theme, it seemed to be such a natural response and was already on my mind!

Wow! These are stunning… and a very different way of looking at something ordinary, if you can say a French horn is ordinary!

I thought the same thing myself when I first pulled the horn out of the case — I see it all the time, so I was thinking, “well this isn’t very exciting”! But once I took a closer look, was reminded of its simple, yet complex, beauty.
