The event was great! I'm sorry that I had to leave halfway through (stupid job) - BUT - i have photographs of most of the performances from the first act (was up front with wide angle and normal lenses) - is there somewhere you'd like me to send them to?
(I wasn't planning on posting/putting up pictures of groups/performers without permission from them, but i can send you private links or a zip file or ship a cd or some other option : )
Hey sol3! I am in Lotus Moon (feather fans). Do you have any pics of us you would like to share? You can email me at pamela@lotusmoondance.com if so. Thanks!
I have pics! I haven't had a chance to go through them in detail yet. Unfortunately because I was a little off center the angle on a lot of them is odd (and i'm sure some of the wide angle lens distortion doesn't necessarily help) - so I need to see what shots I have that stand on their own and what shots are capable of correction. I definitely got a bunch of you guys, though!
Actually, I can correct wide angle. But the biggest distortions in wide angle are at the edges, and I tried to frame things away from that for the most part - but this way i could still get more of the stage (even if it's slight warped). Plus, it let me stay close, meant I could get away with flashes. And mostly, it's because i've been renting and playing with a 16-35mm f/2.8L lens from canon, and it seemed like a good excuse. (Though, to be fair I was also shooting with a 28-70mm f/2.8 lens (alas, not a canon L - that's a mighty fine lens, though)).
If canongrrl is interested in the camera geeking side - I was shooting with a Canon 5d and the above lenses : )
(And a pair of 1 gig cards that meant I was swapping cards every 50 or so shots : )
Sorry you had to leave--thanks for taking photos though! Probably sending me a private link would be best, and then I can forward it to the dancers. My email is badriya at rcndotcom. I don't think most of them would have any issue with you posting them publically (it's free publicity for them!) but I will check with them and get back to you.
