Inspired by some things Kurt Vonnegut said, let us have a thread (this one!) where we can discuss, show and tell about the creative works of GMGers, whatever they may be; Musical, non-musical, it doesn't matter. Poems, drawings, stories, paintings, photos, sculpture, hot guitar licks; good, bad, mediocre (beauty is in the eye of the beholder!), no judgment, just a flow of creativity--non-stop. Why not?

But... we already have a photography thread. Oh well, perhaps it's a good thing that there are two places for any photographs one has taken, and two places for other peoples' (one of which they share).

What equipment did you use to take that? I want to take more interesting photos (not just selfies!) with my iPhone but never seem to get around to it.

Nikon D90, and editing with GIMP2 (added contrast, sharpened, decreased saturation, adjusted colours, added canvas textures)

I'm considering posting some very rough sketches of a sonata for viola and piano under the compositions board, but I admit I'm rather shy about it -- partly because it isn't yet in a coherent form (I jump around sections when I write, which has generally shown to be a bad idea in my case). However, it'd be nice to get some useful advice from the more-skilled members.

I'll think about it.
Beethoven's Op. 133 -- A fugue so bad that even Beethoven himself called it "Grosse".
