Denmark-based photographer Nikolaj Lund specializes in shooting the world of classical music, and captures some pretty unique portraits of musicians with their instruments. He takes the subjects out of their natural environment — the orchestra pit — and has them do epic poses in random places (e.g. streets, oceans, deserts).
