After a tipoff in the forums about a Capoeira showcase at ICC, we all grabbed a chance in capturing this unique event. Graced by the guest of honor, His Royal Highness Prince Mohamed Bolkiah, Minister of Foreign Affairs and Trade, the event saw a packed hall mainly curious about the art of Capoeira. By the end of the event, the crowd was thrilled by acrobatic skills of the performers that night.
I arrived way too early, but that ensured I get good parking, but mostly to check the light levels that’s available to me. Worked good without flash, but I made sure to ask the performer regarding flash use. While ok for the most part, he told us it’s better not to have the flashes going off during his acrobatic moves. Which for the most part was ok, as I had a good ambient light reading anyway. Above, you can see how it was without no flash, taken during their last minute preparation.
Set the White Balance to Tungsten, and gel my flash for that, and for the most part, the shots looked great, considering I didn’t have my monopod.
