Re: [Leica] Photographing stage performances--help!

["Sonny Carter" <sonc@sonc.com>]

Thanks, Mark.
           I really like to shoot the summer stock theatre
here, because it is an intimate setting, and I'm close to
the players, ideal for my M leicas.

I was shooting this during a performance; the whisper of the
Leica seemed to offend no one.

Many of these kids were in the Technicolor Dreamcoat
musical, and I think they were eager for me to do another
web page, so they could show their families and friends.

As far as taking my camera into a professional show where I
was not known, I think I'd be very wary.

Thanks again,

Regards,

Sonny
