Making Music

Another image of Jeeyoon Kim, during her performance. Today's photography involved mostly candids during the welcome dinner for the festival chorus and musicians, but I spent most of my processing time on Jeeyoon's concert images. What was exciting is that she loved them and asked for more during the week if possible!
Lesson from today -- lighting was not an issue but candids that capture the feel of the scene (and involve people holding still) has it's own set of challenges! Some of the posed ones that folks asked me to take will probably be the best.
Thank you so much for your continued encouragement and the kind comments on the photos posted thus far. Lots more to come, I'm guessing!
that's a beautiful low key shot, you captured the emotion on her face in that dramatic but i would guess difficult lighting. aces!

I can sure see why she’d like them. The lighting, the sense of her magically appearing subtly from the darkness is wonderful. The line of edge lighting on the music stand. Wow
