Last night I saw the play "The Country Girl" and managed to get this shot of the set before the action began. (No photos during the performance, please!)

Thank you. I've just bookmarked that site so I can get back to it later. I'm sure it will prove helpful, as I've been a bit intimidated by all the features offered by PS. --Mary Anne

Mary Ann, I'm really sad to hear those news :( In the meantime, I found this site that may help you with photoshop:http://epaperpress.com/psphoto/index.html It is called Photoshop for Photographers.

Thank you for your comments. I thought the topic of this challenge would finally force me to start using a tripod, but my camera just broke today. :-( I have, however, started trying some "tweaking" in PS. Since I won't be able to use my camera for awhile, I can at least become more familiar with some of the tools I have. --Mary Anne

I like the composition and the "feel" of the light. A tripod would have helped sharpness, but I'm sure it wouldn't have been allowed.

This is a beautiful image, Mary Anne. Although I would recommend some photoshop tweaking to bring out the colors.

I like this image. Before I read you description, I would have thought it was after the show: actors leaving and the set is done for the night. Good composition.
