The stage pictures are excellent - colour wise and composition,
as someone who used to do this kind of work ... well, Im yet again
jealous. (3200 ASA/B&W)

With film, what lens/exposure/film rating are you working at,
what film? And how the hell do you get the colour out so effectively!!

Of course, being there and having memory of the scene must help.
And if its negative film, do the prints do the negatives justice?
Or is it the scanning that gets the full effect?
