Description
An Irish folk band was busy playing at pub in Galway city. This musician is strumming his guitar, however, the light levels were so low that I had to shoot with a slow shutter speed, and hence the blur in the movement of the hands. If you're ever on holiday in Ireland, do visit an Irish music pub in Galway, you'll enjoy it - and the Guinness!
The guitar is a fretted musical instrument that usually has six strings. It's typically played with both hands by strumming or plucking the strings with either a guitar pick or the finger(s)/fingernails of one hand, while simultaneously fretting (pressing the strings against the frets) with the fingers of the other hand. The sound of the vibrating strings is projected either acoustically, by means of the hollow chamber of the guitar (for an acoustic guitar), or through an electrical amplifier and a speaker.
