Red on Red on Red...

Uploaded: March 12, 2014

Description

---------
Keith Jones and Deanna Durante, News personalities on Philadelphia's NBC 10 TV, were happy to co-host the Red Ball 2014, the Annual (Philadelphia) American Red Cross Chapter's huge gala Fund Raiser.
----
This was one of my favorite candids of the night and it was one of 40 of my photos that appear as a featured gallery on 6ABC's TV website.
---
This was a dark room illuminated only with a LOAD of red lights. It was a challenge to color-correct while leaving just enough red reflections to show the night's ambiance.
----
What a night! The event raised over $300K and everyone clearly had a great time.
