The unearthed performance II, a photo from Hubei, Central

Photographer's Note

Another one of the series i started yesterday. taken at the Hubei provincial museum in Wuhan. I just realised that there are very few pictures from Wuhan in TE. i shall increase the number!
Comparing to the shot i posted yesterday here you see a male singer. you can also see the man in the background who plays the chime bell.

since i didnt want to use the flash it was a bit difficult to adjust the exposure because the surrounding was quite dark and the light on the center was too bright. here i chose to have the foreground well exposed but the background is a bit dark.

A great second act, Kourosh. I like the framing here even more than that in your previous shot. Kudos, again, on getting a background that has some detail there as it adds depth to the other parts of the image. Everything here is where it should be. Excellent work.

I think this is better than the other shot Kourosh, your exposure seems better. Nice job with sharpness as well. Shots like this are difficult, especially if you aren't using a tripod. I think you have done very well here in exposing details on stage and separating them from the background. I really know nothing on how to produce shots like this, but I think you have done very well. Good shot.

This is a good PJ shot, the red really makes an impact.

Belle capture, j'aime l'aspect diffus des rouges du tapis et le décrécendo des teintes du fond. Les personnages sont ainsi bien mis en valeur. Ciao/jr
