Great colour balance from a flash Di. Can you tell me how you shot this?

Well it was crazy back there Mark, the atmosphere was truly electric ...

I think I put her in the centre of the narrow corridor under a light, checked out the yellow lights around us, and then ... I can't remember the settings Mark, but yes, with flash.

If you can imagine the heat, the atmosphere and etc, then you'll understand ... it was truly hard work but so exciting :)

Wish I could do this everyday.

I'm sure one day it will happen Di - your work is very impressive.

I also wondered how you achieved this perfect color balance on a flash photo (but then, I'm not a pro)

I did run into the limitations inherent to a cell-phone/gsm camera at the Roma theater: when lighting is low, one can basically forget about taking snapshots.

Anyway, it's great reading that you enjoyed the experience.

I know what you mean about the limitations of flash in the Roma ... I love messing around with the settings on my camera though and I got a few edgy no-flash images I was pleased with.
