In the Spotlight





















I love to shoot plays. I like the challenge of the changing light and the movement on the stage. In some ways its like shooting sports. Friday I saw part of the Liberty play Aida at Unity Day. I shot a few images which appear on eldersburg.patch.com. Saturday we, Shirley and family headed north to Gettysburg. We had two nieces appearing in a production at the Adams County School of Musical Theatre. It was our first visit to the theatre and it was quite enjoyable. The girls were taking part in "Once on This Island.'' The cast did a great job, as they performed Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Next up for the theatre is "Camp Rock'' in June followed by "Kids on Broadway'' and "The Jungle Book''. There are other shows through out the year including one of my favorites, "Oliver''. Folks usually got to Gettysburg for the history and outlet mall, now I suggest you try out the theatre at 49 York Street in Gettysburg. There is more information at www.acsmt.org. Normally you can't shoot pictures during a production, As a professional they allowed me to take some images, as I don't use flash. I don't like to use a flash unless I have no choice for light. Don't forget after the production to meet the cast and get autographs.
