Alice in Wonderland Photo Gallery by Richard Calmes at pbase.com

Alice in Wonderland

Welcome to Gwinnett Ballet Theatre's spring production of Alice in Wonderland. There were also 4 short ballets from their repertory.
These images are from 3 performances and two dress rehearsals. Of course
I spent a bit of time lurking backstage for those "real" moments. I used a Canon 5D and a Canon Mark III both set at ISO 1600.

The dancers enjoy reading your comments and if you believe this gallery has merit, please vote so others may see it.

Richard, as usual your work is outstanding. What else to say? Superb, bravo, magnificent! The dancers are absolutely talented and I only wish that one day I am able to see them dancing live. Right now is viewing via Richard's collection which is already so wonderful.

To capture spontaneous and fleeting moments requires extreme skills and understanding of the arts/subject. These moments in time are absolutely priceless to the artists and a gift if it's frameable. Capturing these spectacular moments augment the cameraman/artists selfless dedication to the arts. V

Gus Rosenfeld		11-Mar-2008 20:16
Great work Richard. You have really come to be the 'go-to' guy for ISO 1600 inspiration. These are really exciting captures and an insight rarely earned. I can't say enough about the dancers, that isn't already obvious. It's hard to comprehend the amount, of both guys and gals, who have applied themselves to this sort of discipline. Yet, I'm quite sure it is a very small percentage of a percent that do, when considering a total population. At any rate - as per usual, excellent work in capture and display. g

Guest		11-Mar-2008 20:04
Another great gallery. I especially like the "behind the scenes" look into the lives of these talented dancers. V
