catching fun action shots during shows can be a bit of a challenge with changing lighting conditions and slower shutter speeds (lots of room for blurry photos). this photo was taken right around the time i realized that i was going to love shooting this show – so i got way more into it. i got right up against the stage, basically set my camera onstage and tilted it upwards slightly to make it look like raphael was sort of falling into the camera (excited seher = fun with angles time). when he leaned in, he simply completed the concept and i had a moment of photo nerd glee. it was awesome. qualitatively, i also like the contrast of complementary color between the red suit and green lights, the wire on the floor pronouncing the perspective, and the main light conveniently illuminating the trademark "r" on the drumset.
