The Music Man rehearsals...
















... I will be busy shooting a lot of Theatre the next three weeks. Click on the title of the post to view the pool of rehearsal shots I will be adding to periodically of the Mount Vernon Community Children's Theatre Musical production of The Music Man. Show opens on 13 Nov 09. Check out http://www.mvcct.org for more info.

I am really rocking with the spot metering on the 5DmkII. I love this camera... and the separation the 70-200 f2.8L IS gives... such an awesome lens.

First Star Congressional Event...











...Shots from First Star's Congressional Release Briefing and National Press Conference in the US Capitol.
Congressman Patrick Kennedy spoke at the event and was very engaging.

I love photographing in the US Capitol... the light in the room was cool. Neat colour - white ceiling for good flash bounce, slightly warmed by a big brass lighting fixture. I can see how corporate event type photography can get stale but it was fun to work the angles so I got the First Star logo worked into the pictures. It was nice to play with the composition.

Dracula (a family musical)...















... select shots from the Georgetown Theatre Company's production of "Dracula, A Family Musical". This show is directed by Catherine Aselford and Juliana Avery and will be performed at the lower lever of The Shops at Georgetown Park on Saturdays and Sundays, 1300, 17 Oct - 08 Nov 09.

It was a unique space with minimalist set that is used very creatively. I know it will be great show! Look it up at http://www.georgetowntheatre.org for more info.
