Other People's Art – Pottery by Carrie
Whenever we grab up a work by another artist, small or large, I like to post it here. Roaming through the Havre de Grace Art Show I saw this bowl and just thought it would look cool in Nan’s studio. I took a phone shot of it sitting on her easel, in fromt...
Rosie Jack and the Bangtails – Duets
Finishing up with the Rosie Jack and the Bangtails performance with a few shots of duets, both in the stage area and on the dance floor. The intro shot shows KT (Rosie Jack) and L.H. James. Then below KT and Jesse followed by James and Jesse…
The...
Rosie Jack and the Bangtails – the Band
I tried to get a good individual shot, through the pulled back curtains, of each of the band members. But first I shot got of Matt and Nate (Sax and Base) playing together – and then couldn’t decide between two exposures, maybe they can…
Caleb on...
Rosie Jack and the Bangtails – the Songbird and the Crooners
We saw the first performance of Rosie Jack and the Bangtails – all also members of the Vaudeville troupe Rogue Swan – at the Vandiver. They will be the main attraction New Years Eve at the Vandiver – we are already checking the site almost daily because,...
More from Rogue's 80s Music Show at Vandiver
I enjoy performance shooting – it’s a challenge. One restricting factor is that most of the final pieces are more important for the subjects than they are to myself, as a photographer. And sometimes, the shots that I wind up liking aren’t anywhere near their...
Rogue's 80s Show at the Vandiver
It had to be postponed, so it was pretty close to this week’s upcoming “Rosie Jack and the Bangtails Speakeasy”. This is the one we have been waiting for – though it should feature a somewhat different set of Rogue performers. As far as the 80s music fest,...
September First Frriday – Drum Circle
I’ve been covering goings on at the Drum Circle on First Friday since before it was acctually a drum circle, just Cliff Giles and a drum or two. My collection of images depicting kids of all ages is getting pretty large – and the circle pictures constitute...
Doing it in the Street – First Friday in September
Yeah, I’m still playing catch-up. Nothing gets me behind like the twice a year Haflas. First Friday was on the 1st, but at least I’m ahead of the next First Friday. This first of two postings features All but the five images to be added next time of kids...
Moonshine Autumn Bellydance Gala – april Monique
Finally I’ve worked this shoot to our own local April Monique. Since she also manages thse Haflas, I figured she would want me to concentrate on others among the ladies first. Vry difficult to choose an intro shot from these – I like all four. The first...
Moonshine Autumn Bellydance Gala – Lorelei
Lorelei, and for some reason I can never spell that one right, is another somewhat familiar face in these. There are always new faces, as well as some regulars. This young lady can really get into spins, hair going everywhere. Her lighting was mostly blue,...
Moonshine Autumn Bellydance Gala – Kalayla
Slings and arrows of outrageous lighting – and all that jazz. These are coming along slower than usual, but, with a lot of help from Nan, the pit bull is on it. Kalayla is always a treat to watch – always different, and often with a surprise moment.
Included...
Moonshine Autumn Bellydance Gala – Jo Wall
From a mixture of blue and purple light – with two colors I do have something to work with. Jo Wall also acted as host througn most of the show – evidently she’s something of a card. I selected two shots that “worked”. If I get one that I’m happy with, I...
Tick Tick……Boom
I hate to do two postings in one day, but this one is time sensitive. I got in to see the final rehearsal-run of Tick Tick…Boom at the State Theater here in town – today (Friday), Saturday and Sunday. I converted a few of the shots into b&w – the show is...
Moonshine Autumn Bellydance Gala – Taschen
Taschen provided me with a nice horizontal – which I’ll almost always use as the intro image. It fits better on the blog. She was pretty much in all blue light, but that seems to work well with her. She, as well as Naimah, teaches bellydance. One of the...
Moonshine Autumn Bellydance Gala – Naimah 2
It’s one thing to have complete control over lighting, etc. – it’s quite another to work with action, in extremely low, color lights. It is so satisfying to emerge with a few images, however flawed, that manage to say something. In the end, it’s my favorite...
Moonshine Autumn Bellydance Gala – Naimah
Bellydance Hafla results are somthing of a coin toss – the ladies are moving fast while lighting is changing color semingly at whim. Naimah is a regular – tall enough that I’ve mentioned to her that she’s the only dancer who I’ve spotted extending a hand...
Rogue's "That 80s Show" – upcoming
I managed to get a couple of shots in while Rogue Swa was setting up for last Friday’s show – we won’t actually be there until Thursday’s performance this week. Last time I checked, there were only a half dozen or so tickets left. I just hope we recognize...
Maria Annegarn – My Happy Place No.2
An Other People’s Art posting. We can’t help it – we just acquired another work from a local artist. This work is by Maria Annegarn, who shows in RiverView Gallery in town (where we both show). She just recently brought in a few major piecesm to go along...
PDF eBook of Rogue Swans First Two Vaudeville Performances
Here is the PDF eBook of “Vaudeville Cabaret” and “The Last Call” – Rogue Swan’s first tow Vaudeville performances at the Opera House here in town. These performances were back in 2018 and 2019 – I’m finally caught up creating eBooks of all of Rogue’s major...
First Fridy August – Remains of Radio, wow…
I confess, we don’t always get to all the side streets on First Fridays. This time we exited up the other end than usual. Creole de Gras was hosting a band we weren’t familiar with – Remains of Radio. I couldn’t find a name for the singer, but wow. That’s...
First Friday in August – Drum Circle & Street Chess
Cliffs Giles' legacy – the First Friday Drum Circle, continues to be a big attraction for kids – and the kid in the rest of us… And, as usual, August's proved a big attraction to the kids (and the kid in us)…
AND this month provided me with another...
New PDF eBook – Rogue Swan Invades the UK
Free download – this one took a little longer – so many numbers and so little time. It’s an iPad and Reader optimized PDF eBook – joining a growing number on the site. Many of the images were posted, many not. For anyone involved in Rogue Swan’s production...
Library Talk – Saturday August 5
Wow, they did a nice poster up for this. 2:00 pm Saturday August 5 I will give a color slide show (with Rapanui music) and talk about our 2006 to 2016 Easter Island project. Three years total on the Island. At the end, anyone who endures the drive to Jarrettsville,...
DRUM CIRCLE – first Friday in June
I was worried when there was no Drum-Circle the First Friday in May. It appeared in June, but sadly Cliff Jiles was obviously sorely missed. I remember taking his picture the first time he sat with his one drum outside his wife’s little shop on First Friday...
Oops – back to First Friday in June
Well, I will beat the onset of First Friday in August with these. A couple more to come – these two celebrate a pair of openings. The first heralds rhe opening of a new “Paranormal and Oddities” shop in town. OK, it was bright and contrasty – but it seems...
Finally – laying out the pdf ebook of Rogue Swan Invades the UK
Admittedly, I’m nowhere finished with doing-up the images from this show – so many numbers!. But enough is covered to take a break and spend the last two days laying out the interractive pdf ebook of Rogue Swan Invades the UK – and get most of the titles,...
"Shes not There" - "Shadows in the Rain" Intense
Intense – Caleb sang an old favorite “She’s not There” with Alex and April. then “Shadows in the Rain” solo. I’m making progress here – actually beginning to set up the PDF and move images in. If Rogue ever contemplates this many numbers in a performance...
"The Song that Goes Like this…" – Amy and Jesse
With the number of really great performances in this show, it would impossible to pick a favorite. But on the list would be “The Song That Goes……”, with Amy and Jesse. They played it up to the hilt. And once again, I couldn’t bring myself to eliminate as...
"Life on Mars" – Katie and Arianna
“Life on Mars” – I repeat, photographing for Rogue is something of an education when it comes to music. I keep getting introduced to stuff I didn’t know existed. It seems there IS life on Mars. And once again it was impossible, after combining Lilli’s and...
"Paint it Black" – James and Nate
“Paint it Black” – another number I had no familiarity with. For some reason, it does help a little if I do. The final shot proved impossible to get during the performance – they were down among the tables. But I did get it in a horizontal in dress rehearsal,...
"Gimmie Gimmie" (a man after midnight)…
Starts off slow with Arianna, Jessy and Jess in the spotlight off to the side of the stage – then it becomes as rousesome as it can get. The second shot shows the three ladies exiting on the right as the song continues. “Gimmie Jimmie (a man after midnight)”...
"Immigrant Song" 2
Again, this segment should probably have one image, or even two. But since I would need all four for the pdf anyway, here they are. The final image is a wider view, showing one member of the audience saluting the singers.
Added a little larger...
"Immigrant Song" 1 – Moxie
I tried to trim this down to one closeup of Moxie (Marion Jackson) and one of the group singing the "Immigrant Song". But, being as I simply could not bring myself to eliminate any of these, let along two, I decided on a separate posting – Moxie’s mother...
Battle of the Saxes and "Goodbye Blue Sky"
Figuring out a title for the opening image was a hoot. I considered Size Matters, My Sax is Bigger than Yours and a few others. This little bit with Amy and Matt opened Act II. Off the stage, they were moving and not well lit – but I thought it kind of a...
"Bring on the Men" – and the Red Menace
Finally, out from under the bane of every Rogue Swan show, what I see as the red menace.“Bring on the Men” was performed (very effectively) with red stage lighting – effectively that is for the number itself and the audience. Not so much for the camera....
"Bring on the Men"
It took watching a documentary about music and performance photography (mostly from the film days) to put my performance work with Rogue Swan and the Haflas into perspective. I’m never quite satisfied with most of my results – well, duh. I have no control...
"Moonage Daydream" – Alex
Alex’s tribute to David Bowie – very low-light performance of “Moonage Daydream". The intro shot was taken from the side in dress rehearsal. It’s a pretty good look for Alex. The second shot, during the performance, is a drastic cropping of a full-stage...
"Layla" and "Tattoos" – Nate and Caleb
If nothing else, this posting demonstrates beautifully some of the differences between shooting performance vs dress rehearsal. Performance lighting is harsh, leaving deep shadows in unexpected and awkward places, not to mention bleached out highlights....
"FLASH"
“Flash”, the Queen Flash Gordon theme song. I thought the visuals, and the song were actually better done here than in the movie. It seemed like freaking everyone was on stage – which didn’t help with taking shots. It was choreographed for fast action with...
"Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood"
L.H James not only made this sound great, he made it look good. I liked these four shots the best – yet there were others I could have used. I tried to select one or two, really I did. In some ways the last shot here is a favorite, but it is a drastic crop...
From "I'm Into Something Good" to Shakespeare
Jesse, backed up by Ron and Caleb joyfully struts and sings “I’m Into Something Good”. Then, leading into the next number, he leaves the stage and teams up with Arianna to add some comic relief by attempting a scene from Romeo and Juliet – soon thwarted....
"Heart of Stone"
The intro shot, made while KT, April and Moxie performed “Heart of Stone” catches a moment in the plot that Rogue used to join the various numbers into a show unit. Really a neat effect. In some ways the lighting was easier to wrestle with than that on stage....
"Because" and "The Chain"
Will still be tackling Rogue Swan Invades the UK for a while. As I mentioned some of these were shorter numbers with less going on than others. First here – the Beatles’s “Because” sung by the Barbershop trio, The Three Quarters (Ron, Ed and Matt). They...
Pinball Wizard
Rogue’s latest show is proving a little different to process images from. Sure the venue was a little tricky, but been-there before. The big difference is the sheer number of segments to the show – three to four times as many numbers. Many can be covered...
Body Talks and Be My Number 2 – Spotlight on Bre
It was a difficult decision, but both of these are from dress rehearsal – I just like them so much bettrer than those taken performance night. Lens, angle and all that… Bre not only has one heck of a voice, she can command a stage. The intro shot is from...
You Really Got Me
Yes, Rogue did the Kinks. Caleb backed up by L.H.James and April made “You Really Got Me” sound and look good. The first two images here are from the performance with a long lens fromt he back, note Caleb’s arms. Loved the sound of this one…
The next...
Wannabe
Rogue Swan Invades the UK sported about twice as many numbers as most shows – a lot of the music was pop in origin, and therefore shorter in length. That makes for somewhere around thirty five separate performances to deal with. No way am I going to try...
Sympathy for the Devil
Sometimes one image says it all. This was one different and impressive belly-dance. The mere force, spins, matching movements to such an intense piece. And here the stance and expression more than hint at what is to follow.
Working these up one number...
"Beck's Bolero"
Jeremy Hicks-Kachik and the Rogue band play “Beck’s Bolero”. Lighting was shifting and insanely harsh – effective to the eye, but…. And lots of action on Jeremy’s part – I managed to get two shots off that I like.
Added a little larger to their own...
"Son of a Preacher Man"
Arianna singing “Son of a Preacher Man” with Bre on chorus. After getting my shot, I first zoomed in on the left where Natasha (who chimes i with a number of wind instruments) was on sax and Alex on guitar.
Then I swung the lens to the right to catch...
While My Guitar Gently Weeps…2 – Pure Class
The one image among these that Lilli thought she was going to get away with selecting just doesn’t do her performance justice. There’s something classy about the intro shot along with the fact that it is the first in the sequence – Lilli positioned in the...
While My Guitar Gently Weeps…1
“While My Guitar Gently Weeps” – Lilli high above the stage on a Lyra Hoop while Arianna and Alex perform a ballet, accompanied by KT and LH James singing. It was a lot to take in. These show the number at different stages. Next posting will be a series...
Rogue Swan Invades the UK - Cast Photo
So many exposures and so little time. I got pretty far behind on these – but now I can work on catching up. As far as rehearsal images go, those not done yet will probably not appear here – but will be included at the end in the PDF eBook of the show. Dress...
Three Quickies Between Performances…
Shot the performance last night from the back – not the easiest thing to do where the audience slants down to the stage. Tonight we return to simply sit and enjoy the great show (after taking the cast photo).
Again, the folio will have to wait...
Last Before Performance…
Backed up on rehearsal images, but with first performance tonight, I’m posting the first four from dress rehearsal. For this show, dress and performance shots will be joined in their own folio (for performance I will be restricted to the rear with my big...
I'm Exhausted – the Cast must br ready to Drop…
Hours on end swinging a heavy camera and lens around truing to keep up with the goings on on stage, then an equivalent number of hours getting the jpegs out to Lilli and working up the needed B&Ws. I’m exhausted, but then realize that there’s no way I could...
Stage Lighting can be a Challenge…
Wow, the stage lighting combined with the house lights being up makes for some challenges. That plus I have to get used to the show’s timing so I can be prepared for noteworthy moments when they occur in the actual show. Images today finish up with Lilli’s...
More from Rogue testing out the Stage
Lilli picked about 16 that Rogue liked for B&W work-up. Here’s the second batch of 4. Stage not finished no costumes (except maybe James at times). Lighting is atrocious at this point, making for a bit of work on my part – but they’re worth it. The intro...
Rogue vs the State Theater Stage
One of the more fascinating parts of preparing for a performance is the labor that goes into adapting the venue for the particular show. I included an early shot of the evening, showing both some of the raw construction going on in front – expanding the...
Final Cast Portraits for Rogue Swan Invades the U.K.
Had to wait for Katie and Nate to get home from Scotland. That’s it, except for Lilli (who claims she’s too fond of the head shot from the last show and a couple of other scary-cats, that completes the cast portraits. in the program April will use small...
First Friday – Street Rogues
Street made narrower by booths, split lighting, people standing around – did the best I could shooting with the camera well over my head. At least these two shots show something of the exhuberence Rogue dacers put into the show. This took place in front...
Rogue Swan Invades the U.K – the rest of Lilli's Rehearsal Selections
Before I start work on, hopefully, some First Friday images, here are the rest of the selection list Lilli sent from the Concord Point rehearsals. The intro shot shows one of the dance numbers – with Bre leaping in the front. I’m being a little short on...
Not from Lilli's List…
Today is more for fun – First Friday this evening and the cast will give an “impromptu" flash-mob performance in the street outside the State Theater just after 6 pm. A great way to launch your First Friday experience. So I decided to work up four images...
From Lilli's Request List…
Lilli Burril Gordon is the force to deal with when working with Rogue Swan – she handles the management end of things. I’m sitting on a list of about fifteen rehearsal images remaining from her b&w request list – color jpegs are given to Rogue. Her help...
Rogue Swan Invades the U.K.Cast Portraits- 4
This time around cast portraits are proving a little more difficult to schedule – in spite of the fact that there’s probably about two minutes involved in each – on my part anyway. The intro shot is L.H. James. I finally learned that he adopted the “L.H.”...
Cast Portraits - 3
There will be another cast portrait sitting soon – these finish up the fifteen so far. The intro shot is of Marion “Moxie” Jackson. Subjects were sitting in the shade of a tree that wasn’t quite as dense as I thought. I didn’t notice it, but it shows up...
Cast Portraits - 2
The next five. Nan picked Jess Langley for the intro shot – the one lady in this group and and another with Mona Lisa-ish smile. As the man with the camera, I don’t take any credit for the posint. These are show people and, for the most part, know what they’re...
Time to Start the Cast Portraits…
At first glance, time to take the cast portraits for the program doesn’t seem like that big a deal. Heck, they’re going to be a small inch by an inch and a half ovals, on regular paper. But I like to take the opportunity to overdo it a little. They pick...
Fake It Til You Make It…
Tis was something of a shorter session – more instruction than practice. But I did get a couple of shots in. The title is the quote off Bre’s shirt. She finishes up her nursing degree this month and is definitely making it. I love her expression in the intro...
A Couple of Stragglers from Last Week…
Finishing up with a couple of stragglers from last week, going into tonight’s rehearasl at Concord Point. The intro shot is possibly my favorite from the shoot – competing with the intro shot from the last posting. Then there’s the second shot here – cut...
Rehearsal Getting Serious…
It’s kinda cool to watch everyone working variations of their expressions at the same time they’re working on getting their steps into muscle memory and coordinating their movements and poses. Then it all comes together around dress rehearsal – minus a couple...
Fine Lines – even in rough rehearsals
Lilli made some selections from the set of images from the last Rogue rehearsal at Concord Point (after hours). There were some fun group shots (next time), but she included all five of these. Who could pass them up? I love the face in the intro shot (even...
Addams Family Portrait – at the Opera House
I interrupt the present progress of Roque Swan’s latest for this. I have a number of exposures from the dress-rehearsal for The Addams Family musical at the Opera House this week – wow, definitely a must-see. And laugh-out-loud funny. Katy Gordon from Rogue...
This is what we're gonna do…
First and second post are of Katie and L.H. James. In the intro shot, Katie is busy choreographing. Me, I’m stuck in the middle of everything with a wide-angle lens. Not the in the comfort zone of shooting from out of the fray with a good zoom telephoto.
Nate...
The Dreaded Garage Again…
Once more into the breach. Garage rehearsals last hours, but I can only take about an hour and a half before I feel like I probably have anything I’m gonna get, and need to escape. Instead of working from the outside of the action looking in, I’m sort of...
Finishing May 3 Rehearsal – the Expressions Have It
I almost overlooked the intro shot here. The positions, as confusing as they are, are interesting, but Will’s disconnected head makes it for me. He just missed getting his neck into the frame. OK, I could fake a neck line, but what would be the fun in that.
Next...
More from May 3 Rehearsal at Concord Point…
OK, I’ll admit, I have yet to figure out a lot of this action. All I know is that it looks like fun… A few more images from the May 3 rehearsal of Rogue Swan Invades the U.K. playing at the State Theater in June. I can’t wait to see dress rehearsal. As...
If the Audience Has as Much Fun as the Cast…
This rehearsal was a lot of fun. Light sabres, toy space guns, etc. It will take a couple of postings to get to everyone. Lilli suggested a few, so she takes the blame/credit for selecting this first bunch to work up. This should definitely be a fun time...
Rogue – Fun with New Dance First Run-throughs 2
Like Will and Arianna last posting, April and Caleb walk through the turn and dip that comes in the middle of a longer dance number. Bu the second Coffee Shop rehearsal, these couples will be smooth at this. Some group shots next time – then another rehearsal...
Rogue – Fun with New Dance First Run-throughs 1
Some of the most fun, and trauma, the cast has in rehearsals is early on getting used to new dance steps. In this sequence Jess and new cast member, Arianna Constantini, work out some new moves – they were a lot smoother by the end…
Will and Alex...
The Rogue Band Garage – Smaller on the Inside, and a little Scary
Just a couple more images from the first, but not the last, Rogue band rehearsal at “the Garage”. The Opening shot is just the entry door, it sort of sets the tone. The first shot below is very wide-angle – making it look like one can almost move in there....
Rogue Invades the U.K – Ladies in the Garage
Attended my first rehearsal for “Rogue Swan Invades the U.K.” coming up in June at the State Theater. It was in the “Garage”. Strange, it’s sort of an anti-Tardis, much smaller on the inside than it looks on the outside. Shooting in a crowded, noisy, dark...
An Other Peoples Art Posting – Bill Buck
“Cliff Dwellers” by Bil Buck from RiverView Gallery in town. It got a lot of attention, before we laid it away a few months ago. It’s a three dimensional multi-media wall piece – 16X25 inches and about 2.5 inches deep in places. It looks more delicate than...
iPhone faster shutter/high ISO – Part II of el gran experimento…
This posting took a whhile – even after a week of stmach virus. My first reaction, on seeing the exposures, was to give up on this part of the el gran experimento. Crap were they grainy and noisy – just what one would expect from high ISO iPhone work. But...
El Gran Experimanto, iPhone and Belly Dance – Part I
We attended a nice Greek Night dinner at the Vandiver, where April Monique performed twice. Not really a camera situation, but I had my iPhone, and as others were using theirs, I decided on an El Gran Experimento. The first performance I shot at 1/40 of...
Three More Rogue Piano Reflection Shots from the Gallery 220 Opening
I came up with three more of the fun shots with reflections in the piano or Rogue Swan at the Gallery 220 opening in town. I had to do something to spice things up a little – it’s not often I have to deal with Rogue images where everyone is actually standing,...
Finishing up Rock of Ages…
It was impossible to say no to most of these images. Some I really like on their own, others are needed to help tell the story of the shoot. Anyway, here’s the rest – at least they all fit on one page in the folio HERE… where they all appear full size, and...
The End is Near, Repent – or go see Rock of Ages at the State
My second batch from Rock of Ages at the State Theater – three shows remaining this upcoming weekend. I couldn’t resist using this as the intro shot. I’m torn between lamenting the shots I missed and being amazed I got what I did, with going in blind – with...
Rock of Ages at the State Theater…
I’ll admit that as much fun as it was to shoot Rock of Ages at the State Theater, I pretty much thought I would emerge with a small set of final images (other than the color jpegs I gave them). The show is pure fast moving havoc and I didn’t have the advantage...
Rogue at Gallery 220 Opening
Four members of Rogue Swan provided some background for the opening of Gallery 220 in Havre de Grace Friday. Naturally I had to include the first image here, with their sign front and center– Katie, Qpril and Nate performing. Then I took a series of fun...
Rock of Ages at the State Theater – My Favorite Shot
I’m busy working up the couple of images from the Gallery 220 opening, but took a break to do my favorite shot from Rock of Ages at the State Theater in town. It’s a lot of fun and laid back – just don’t dally in the aisles. I almost got run over at one...
Carolyn Blazeck – an Other Peoples Art Posting
At Friday’s opening of Gallery 220 in town we spotted a ceramic and pine needle piece with a familiar look to it. Checking the exhibit catalog we confirmed that it was by Carolyn Blazeck, the same artist who made what still is Nan’s favorite Valentine’s...
Finishing up… with the Rogue rehearsal
So I’m finishing up this Rogue rehearsal shoot with some fun images. Opening is a wide-angle view (showing all but three or four). Then, below, I caught Scott giving Caleb a “look” during their number. Alongside that is what I thought was a cool moment of...
More of the same – with some process notes…
I shot the Vandiver rehearsal without much in the way of expectations. It was just a rough rehearsal with jackets on to keep out the cold. But it was a good opportunity to both work a little closer in with my 16-80 f4.0 lens and try out some new processing...
Rogue Rehearsal at the Vandiver
I shot these mostly for fun – I can’t always be there to shoot Rogue’s Vandiver dinner-theater performances, so I tried the rehearsal for March’s St. Patrick’s Day Concert. It gave me an opportunity to grab a much shorter lens and stand wherever the heck...
Moonshine Hafla, Mardi Gras Edition – April Monique
Havre de Grace’s own April Monique… performed down in front of the stage also, but caught something of a lucky break. She’s just enough shorter than most of the others who did that the stage edge and floor that provided part of the background could, and...
Moonshine Hafla, Mardi Gras Edition – Sophianna Apergis and Naimah
Sophianna Apergis… wow, even her name is cool. Sophianna is new to our local hafla. I never know what to expect as far as lighting – or if performers request certain lights vs just what the lighting man thinks appropriate at the moment. But here, even with...
Moonshine Hafla, Mardi Gras Edition – Emily Gonzaga and Jaelynn
Emily Gonzaga, in the first shot here was solid green to begin with, with the veil illuminated somehow separately in rainbow coloring. The entire exposure of the second image was blue, with just a tinge of purple showing up in the veil. Needless to say they...
Moonshine Hafla, Mardi Gras Edition – Sha'Vei, Katie Jacobsen and Lotus Sol
I repeat that it’s up to the ladies whether and if they post any of the color images I provide. Then again, it can be a awful lot of blue, green, orange, red and/or purple images. The girls do like their flashing color lighting. I can “usually” do something...
Moonshine Hafla, Mardi Gras Edition – Farah Fusion, Mystic Caravan and Anam Cara
The trickiest exposures at Haflas are of groups of two or more. There’s a lot of luck involved – one of the subjects falling outside the depth of field or moving too fast are the first concerns. Then there’s double the issue of facial expressions. But my...
