Robert Reed and his tap group, St. Louis, Missouri.
For a little Get Out section art previewing a tap festival, I joined Robert Reed and his tap group for a portrait at an arts center near downtown several days ago. What better elements are there to work with when you have a fabulous set of tap dancers, red uniforms, a huge white curtain and a slate gray floor? I used a simple one light setup with a flash bounced off a giant silver umbrella right behind the camera. The white curtain’s texture was a glorious reflector.
By the way, thanks for all the bag comments from the previous post. Right now I’m test driving a Think Tank Speed Demon for a couple of days. It’s rather large and a bit cumbersome, but it sure saved my back while covering a funeral in Maplewood. Thanks Mike, Tom and Lisa for your advice. It genuinely helps.
