Singing on the Dance Floor

Uploaded: March 16, 2014

Description

----
At the [SE Pennsylvania chapter American Red Cross] Red Ball gala fundraiser on March 8, 2014.
----
There were three bands in three separate rooms at the Philadelphia Please Touch Museum. This was the largest and most lively room. The band's male vocalist and just jumped off the stage and placed himself among the dancers on the floor.
----
This RED LIGHT was pervasive at the Red Ball, and it made life difficult for a "candid" photographer. However in THIS type of shot, it seemed to enhance the "Sense of Place."
