Title:	Pattern in Motion
Gear used:	Olympus Centurion (black version) APS
Diaphragm:	Beats me, it was on automagic!
Shutter speed:	Beats me, it was on automagic!
Film used:	Fujifilm Nexia A200 APS
Technical information:	Zoomed to 100mm, Full Auto setting. Scanned to CD at time of development. Used Photoshop to crop, correct scan-induced softening and color adjust slightly to reduce Nexia's tendency to go a bit too blue in shaded shots.
Subject information:	Hammer Dulcimer player at the Society for Creative Anachronism's Renaissance Faire. Maybe a little unusual for a 'pattern & texture' shot, but I liked the idea of suggesting the pattern inherent in music. Carried the Centurion as opposed to my usual bag-of-OM-kit because it was 105F (41C)!

Great, now I know what a Hammer Dulcimer looks like !

Actually I see pattern in the parallel strings and excellent texture in the shirt. :-) Excellent lighting. Soft without harshness and yet not too flat (which would lose texture).

Nice motion effect with the hammers.

Another subtle pattern is the decreasing length of the strings. The parallel strings suggests that there are multiple patterns in this photo. Nicely arranged.

I like the balance and the nice pastel colors!
