As promised, here’s the full set of pics from Carnaval 2008 at the High Noon Saloon, featuring Pagee Go Go, the Handphibians, and Massamba Dance Company. Special thanks to my brother, whose 70-200 I’ve totally stolen for the past week (I swear I’m getting my own ASAP!); also, thanks to LensRentals.com for the 580 EX II. Be sure to say hi in the comments if you’re in any of these pics or if I met you while shooting that night! A total of 45 pics from Feb. 16, 2008:
Holy cow Phil…. These shots are amazing… I’m so glad you could come shoot!!! Hope you had a blast being all up in everyone’s Sh@t! *beijos*
wow, these are really inspiring! i’m glad that you were able to get some up-close shots of the handphibs, they’re great!
It was great to meet you Phil - and I love some of these pictures, especially the people shots with streaming long exposure colors and backgrounds. The great group shots and super clear musician pics kind of give me big camera envy, but I have a lot of fun tucking my little point and shoot into my purse and joining the dancing at any given moment too. Keep creating!
Great pics… Thanks for coming and I am glad you had a good time. I am one of Massamba members, is there anyway you can send me the pics so I can add to our materials, I’ll give you credit for your pics.
Thanks,
Ananda
