In his performance in A Midsummer Night's Dream at the Cellblock Theatre at the National Art School.

Lighting conditions were very poor, and I was shooting at up to ISO3200 on the D2H, using the 24-140 or the 50mm f1.4.

Gary excellent to see you there!

Anyone else who missed it did miss something very special

Leigh your a multitalented powerhouse, your performance was witty, well executed and inspiring.

I was shooting with the 70-200VR f2.8 at ISO1600

Theatre is one of the coolest things to shoot full of photographic opportunity
a real test of your compositional skills and attention span.

the whole production was great apart from the mood lighting for effect.

THERE IS ANOTHER PERFORMANCE TONIGHT 7:00PM CELL BLOCK THEATRE NATIONAL ART SCHOOL DARLINGHURST, I WILL BE THERE[/b]

I see he's upgraded his camera! ;)

Looks good - he almost looks like he knows what he's doing!

You know you're allowed to use a flash right?

The lights already blind us. Hell, I make sure I try to look up at the lights so as to avoid looking at people!!!

I've lost count of how many times I've been "touched" this week.

I guess Titiania found something more interesting than the camera
Leigh looks surprised or frightened
This capture deserves picture of the year!

Surprised was the intended emotion I tried for every day with that bit.

What disappoints me greatly about these and the other pics I've seen here is that Leigh spoke endlessly before the event about being forced to have his head pushed between some charming young lady's ample bosoms and how he had to use all his skills as an actor to acct appropriately. Nowhere do I see this scene or the aforementioned breasts.

Well, during rehearsals, she forced my head on her breasts.

During the play, she adlibbed and just pushed me down on the bed and jumped on top of me.

I must admit, I was scared one of the nights that she was going to hurt me... :oops: :lol:

Did it occur to you that she might have been putting your head there in order to indicate to you she wanted a little rehearsal practice one on one after hours and that she did the bed thing to try and get through to you she wasn't just pretending :wink:

The wedding ring she wore kind of threw that one out of the picture.
