Won't You Charleston With Me?

Uploaded: February 12, 2014

Description


----
Cast members of "The Boyfriend" (four dancing couples for this act) performed this piece at the 2011 Princeton Festival Gala Dinner. It was SO MUCH FUN to photograph their performance and even now, almost three years later, I can still find myself singing the song to myself.
----
Worked on this yesterday. Did some new cropping and zapped (not an easy one) some music stands and instruments
that were sprawling in the background on the left side.
----
Used my Canon 7D with 24-105 lens attached, and hot shoe flash with diffuser.
