Working my way through my archives I've finally made it to March of 2008. I just completed processing images I took of the first Hideous Kinky Vaudeville Show. While I enjoyed capturing all the acts that night, I also shot my favorite dancer set. That night performer Crystal Dunlap did an amazingly beautiful feathered fan-dancer piece.
I shot the set using my "nifty-fifty," Canon EF 50mm f/1.4 lens. As the years have passed I've turned to the EF 135mm f/2.0L, and my 70-200mm f/2.8L IS to shoot performances. I believe this is the only one where I used the 50mm. After reprocessing images from the shoot I may just use it once more for this type of photography.
Another thing that came to mind is how few performances I've shot recently. Since moving to Wisconsin I've not done any, except for my daughter's little number for the local Spring Show. I think I'll look into local dance troops to see if any want to work with me.
