Dec 23 – In the theatre

Quick snapshot in the theatre this afternoon. Ballet, Cinderella. No photography allowed during the performance, but what a performance it was! The dancers were really great. And (from a photographic point of view) if you like to know how to use light you should visit the Dutch National Ballet in Amsterdam if you're in the neighborhood, or www.dpchallenge.com :) — Quick snapshot in the theatre this afternoon.
