 Photos of clarinets (and other WWs)
Author: clarnibass

Hello!

I'm going to make a website about woodwinds. I'm looking for pictures of clarinets and saxophones that I can use for the main headline of the website. If anyone has good photos of clarinets (or saxophones) that I can use I would really appreciate it. Best are ones without a lot of things in the background. If I can use them without giving credit to whoever took the photo that would be better but if you prefer I give credit I will do that. They need to be relatively small (or look reasonable if I make them small). I only need two or three since they will only be at the top headline.

Any other suggestions would be great too.

Thanks!

Nitai

There ya go: http://www.hochstrasser.org/wiki/pmwiki.php/Clarinet/Marigaux

As long as you don't remove the watermark, you may use them as you see fit. (well, maybe except from shouting "look at that ghastly picture of that ghastly horn" [wink])

Thanks very much Ben. Actually I just sent you an email about this too (I can't actually use the photos from your website).

I have some images on a web site here
that you are welcome to use (on the second page I think).

If you want one, let me know and I can email it to you. They mostly have a black background that can be extended in photoshop if editorial is needed on top.

There are pictures you should be able to use freely at Wikimedia Commons; see http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Woodwind_instruments and its subcategories, e.g. http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Clarinets for clarinets.

Hey,

I did something similar but my contents pretty crappy. The pictures, though, are pretty good.

Shalom Nitai,
Near Mann Auditorium in Tel Aviv there is a man who plays the most unusual Bass Clarinet. He is dressed up like a sailor and plays to the audiance of the concert usually befor the concert.
He told me that he has a very special collection of old instrumets at home.

You can take a picture of him and maybe with some "Shohad" he will show you his instruments.

There was a website at http://jerselmer.free.fr/clarib/claribole.html that had great picture of old clarinets...by far the best online source I had ever seen. Unfortunately, it is now gone, and I am wishing I would have captured those images. Perhaps someone knows where to find them...

Thanks Sarah. The logo is done (though I can always change it) but it sounds like an interesting story to add to the website anyway! I hope I can be there sometimes when he is there (I'm not in Tel Aviv a lot).
