The Photohunter theme this week is red. I decided to feature my sunburst guitar which was harder than I thought it would be because it was like a mirror.
I kind of like the way it not only reflected me taking its picture but it also captured my acoustic guitar. What I didn't like was that it wasn't true to the guitar's color when it had a reflection inside of it. I finally figured out that the best place to photograph my sunburst guitar was in the bathroom.
Even in the bathroom it still has a little bit of a reflection, but not so much as when I photographed it in natural light in my living room.
There is almost no reflection when I photographed the front of the guitar in my bathroom. It occurred to me that what I should do for this post is to paint the town red. I fear that even if I still had it in me to paint the town red, I wouldn't want to document myself doing it.You can find other Saturday photohunters at the links below. I probably won't be able to visit until the end of the weekend because I have a house guest. I'm also not sure if I'll get to my computer to post the mine is up on TNchick's site, but I'll visit when I can. I hope everyone has a great weekend.

I like the first picture the best with your reflection on it!! So neat!! Have a great weekend!!

Reading everyones comments I think you should do a self portrait picture in the guitar- center yourself and see you can reach your arms somehow that it doesn't show the camera when you snap it.
I like the idea of painting the town red! I say go for it!
GReat shot and great commentary. :)

Great job using reflection! Now let's hear you play a little!
We have lots of guitars here in Adelaide this week with a large guitar festival. Last night it was slide guitars. Beautiful shots of your guitar.
Cool guitar shots. I wish was something other than an utterly inept guitarist myself. Have a great weekend
That is a lovely red guitar! :) Nice job getting a reflection-free photo in the end, but all of the photos look good.
My red photo.

Yes, it's funny how reflections can turn out :-)
Ur guitar is so nice!
Mine is black one so can't send in for this week photohunt =).
I love the reflection, even if it's not quite the right colour. Painting the town red, now that sounds perfect:)
Wonderful shots... I also really like the first one.
Lovely pics of a nice-looking guitar. Have a great weekend!

Great pics & nice post. Been trying to imagine you about town, wielding a red paintbrush LOL!
Happy Weekend Carver. And I hope everything's gonna turn out ok with your lab results!
I love the guitar, Carver, and I think the first photo with the reflections is cool. Hope your weekend is perfectly delightful and I'd love to have you stop by Pollywog Creek, if you get a chance.
I happen to agree I like the photo of the guitar with the reflections.

Thanks so much to everyone for visiting and commenting. To answer about how long I've played guitar, I've messed around with it since I was a teenager. I hesitate to put that into years since I have been very on and off with it and am not particularly good. I can back myself up with guitar when I sing. I hope everyone has a great week.
Great shots all, and have a great week!
My husband is a musician so my eye caught right away to the beautiful guitar.
I wish I could hear you play. You must be so good. What type of music do you play?
Nice looking guitar! Have a good week.
What an amazing guitar. I am learning to play the guitar.

Thanks again to everyone for visiting and commenting. I enjoyed this hunt and look forward to the next.
I love your reflection in the glossy surface!
