16 Melancholy

Melbourne, Australia

Melancholy oriental sounds resonate on a cold and windy day in front of the national art gallery.
It is the erhu player.
It brings back memories of a journey through China.

Nice street candid. The sound is melancholy.

Never heard of Erhu, but looked it up on Wikipedia.
A nice capture, Mieke.
