FM
Francesco Zantedeschi, Joseph Henry, Michael Faraday, James Clerk Maxwell, David E. Hughes, Heinrich Rudolf Hertz, Nikola Tesla, Jagadish Chandra Bose, Thomas Alva Edison, Alexander Stepanovich Popov, Oliver Lodge, Guglielmo Marconi, Edouard Branly and many others gave us this: the radio. Since this is a very simple mono FM radio receiver, tune somewhere from 87.5 to 108.0 MHz and wait for Roger Waters - Radio K.A.O.S. (Who Needs Information)

Coucou! Such a playful looking radio! I love the way you positioned it to amplify the petit bonhomme! Hélas, the Roger Waters that I picked up didn't quite fit this mood.

I love the bright orange here. And it is really cool that something as "low tech" as a simple radio receiver looks like an invader from space. Beautiful lighting and composition.

Oh, he is sooo cute! Bright and bouncy and friendly and ready to bring us our choice of music from wherever he can! Just love the lighting in this and it's a stark contrast to yesterday's sombre mood. Well done.

The orange is simply lovely aganst the black. And the composition you've chosen works really well. All in all, a very pleasing photo to view.

Jujubie, you're quite right, some surf band would have been much more appropriate for this guy. I was a big Roger Waters fan back in the eighties and I remember I've heard The Tide Is Turning promo for the first time on an equally small radio. I've actually picked that album for purely nostalgic reasons. I should have mentioned this earlier. :)

What a cool looking radio! The orange really pops out against the black. The volume or tuner at the top of its head looks like a patch of hair :)

What a funky looking radio, beautifully photographed against the black with that eye popping orange.
