Hello Jana & Chung Wah,
Thanks.
These our two separate pictures taken during the Dervish dancers show, we went to with Jim.
The first one (background photo) I took zoming out,so you get the light effect. The second picture with the two dancers was taken during the show(no flash). Then I put them in photoshop together in two separate layers and brushed away part of the top layer.
