Exquisite image, George. I dearly love these vintage sewing machines.

A hilarious song with a "tragic" ending. ;-)

My late mother had a machine similar to this and I wish it had been kept because it makes a great photographic subject, And this is a superb photo, George. Inspired use of the shallow depth-of-field. A perfect musical match too :-)

Thank you for posting to Sight and Sound : Pictures & Music

I know that song very well, George. Lovely DOF here, and a rather beautiful old timer.
