I have a guitar, and I don’t know how to use it…


I have a pink guitar that I received for Christmas ’05, when I was 15, from Santa Clause (that was the last year I received gifts from Santa).  I have tried to learn how to play in the past, but wasn’t successful; And now I have reignited the flame to learn!  I have pretty much been practicing nonstop for the past couple of weeks and it is going pretty well. 




I am so desperate to learn that I have spent a lot of time in my car driving to book stores and music shops to find more books, software and DVD's that will help me.  And because I am so stubborn I cannot yet hire a guitar guru/teacher.

  1. Friend, this is awesome! You convey such a mood in these photos...super great job!! Maybe photojournalism is something you are good at when you are able to photograph what YOU want...not what the teachers want :)

  2. Morgan, I am excited to see that you are learning to play guitar! These images are great, I can defiantly tell that you are really trying to learn. Might I suggest taking this great pink guitar out into the outdoors, into the sun? I think the colors outside would really show off your great guitar & it might help you get out of your element and play to the birds! (lol) I think my fav. photo on here is the 1st one because it really shows the viewer a good overall scene of the situation.

  3. Hi Morgan!

    You are going to have to come and play guitar with me, I am also in the learning stages and we could learn together : - )

    Of your images, the first three really convey the “I’m learning the guitar” mood! And actually I think the fourth image of the books does too! The fifth image might be a little repetitive, I think I would like to maybe see a close up of your finger playing or about to play, this would give a little more depth to the story, which you are probably working on right now : - )

    You have done a very good job of telling a story through the images, I almost think that you could even get away with no text. But I think the text adds a lot of spirit and your personality really shines through!

    I hope you keep up the guitar both in learning and photographing, I am really looking forward to seeing more of the pink guitar!

    See you in class fellow guitar player!
