My first entry for DPC. Well this idea goes to my wife. I tried to model her for some other topic (and she really took some pain) but finally ended up with this theme. We thought of cassette vs crowd of CD music. plus tried to add "classical instrumental music against popular movie music" angle to the photo. Shot at home, under flash. (Would have preferred under natural light but had time constraints).
Lets see how my first DPC click exposes :-)
Editing steps: standard tone adjustment (under canon DPprofessional), cropped, resize and sharpened the image.

Thanks to all for voting and commenting and showing interest in this picture. This being my first entry to DPC and with not much efforts, I was not expecting much. But I have got quite many comments, variety of views and now that I can see details of the score, its WOW that some people found it 8,9,10 and sad at the same time that many were 1,2,3 too. Well 1,2,3 also appreciated that I need to do much better in future and also the fact that I needed to convey my theme in better way. There was popular Hindi(Indian) movie music on one side and classical instrumental music on the other. Added crowd of CDs to lonely cassette. May be due to local theme it did not appeal the really "global" crowd. (and that way I was alone in a crowd :-)) )
Thats best learning for me from this challenge.
