well i think you're right... but it's not a prefect shot anyway: her eye is not perfectly in focus and this is bugging me a lot...
not an easy shoot... i had to move carefully in the dark, and evaluate the level of the music before pressing the shutter button (no noise allowed). it was my first classical music concert, the first time i could use my new 200mm f/2.8 lens (at f/2.8 obviously) and it was also my first official job as photographer for the festival management whew!

well, some months before i discovered that the head of the press office was a mate of mine at high school. so we managed the thing: press pass in exchange of shots. just did it for fun, i didn't earn any money.
same thing last september. i was "hired" for four shows. after the second one, a little nasty stone decided to jump out of my left kidney and i had to go to the hospital for them to extract it...
so i will be patiently waiting next september.
but hey, a collegue of mine plays ukulele in a ukulele band. they are recording a cd and he asked me some help for the photoshoot they need for the cd cover. lots of fun in the next weeks
stones are kindly requested to stay where they are
