I attended the year 11 play at school last night... Mainly because mini-leek had a cameo role as a fairy in the play...

It was rather bizarre as all the parts of men and boys were played by girls (it's a girls only school)... It was set in the late 60s which made for some very groovy outfits and costumes...

I took the camera along, intending just to take a few shots of my little fairy, but in the end managed to take over 100 shots of the play...

Call me crazy, but I'm going to give them to the school and allow them to raise money by selling them to the kids and parents...

I mainly used the Nikkor 50mm 1.4 and 105mm and managed to get very reasonable exposures at ISO800... even from the 6th row of the audience...

Here are a few, so that you see the sort of quality that is possible without flash...

All look pretty good to me, John. I don't think you're crazy for giving them to the school.

John, great photos. Love the colours

The saturation in the last one could be increased a bit though.

Giving it to the school is good, I guess...at least if they're thrilled with the photos, they might contract you later on

And it's good to see that the school didn't get heavy in terms of trying to stop you from taking photos at this event.

I think you need to make that acknowledgement to them when you give them your images. It can't hurt ...

Which reminds me ... any progress on the swim centre?

Love the little angels! A classic subject!

I'll post the current situation in the original thread...
