Same lens, com­pletely dif­fer­ent situation.

This time, it’s all about event pho­to­graphy. Last year the Gos­pel Choir (which I’m part of) had a gig with two imper­son­at­ors (Elvis, and Tina Turner). Dur­ing the bits where we sang with them (pho­tos here) I got the chance to take some pho­tos myself of those two pro­fes­sion­als doing their job — great singing, and dan­cing, and look­ing like the ori­ginal.

Being part of the “crew” I could pretty much go any­where I wanted dur­ing the show, which also means back­stage. That’s how I got this nice angle. Obvi­ously I had to shoot wide open with a fairly high ISO to avoid too much motion blur in those light­ing con­di­tions. Again, the burst trick really helped to get some crisp shots. Another bene­fit of this tech­nique is that you usu­ally get a lot of funny faces when someone is singing (or talk­ing for that mat­ter), so get­ting sev­eral shots in a row allows you to select the nicer ones ;-)
