Images on this page were taken with Nikon D300 and D80 cameras, Nikkor 70-200mm VR, Nikkor 18-70, Sigma 12-24, lenses and Nikon SB800 flash. Indoor shots were mostly captured at 1600 -3200 ISO without flash. We dislike using flash as it disturbs both performers and audience, and often produces flat, overbright images. Most images taken in the marquee are affected by a yellow/red colour-cast arising from the tent material and the stage lighting although Adobe LightRoom is very effective at removing the worst of this.
