Bagpiper 1

From collection Kosti Ruohomaa Collection

Bagpiper 1

This  image shows a bagpiper up close, revealing details of his jacket, tartan scarf, and pipes. A ribbon flaps from his bonnet in the breeze, giving the image a dynamic and festive moment.

Kosti shoots from a low angle to capture the man's unwavering focus as he inflates the bag with his breath while fingering the keys. The setting is a Highland Games festival hosted by the Caledonian Club of Boston in 1945.
