Madama Butterfly Opera : The Springfield Regional Opera presented Puccini's Madama Butterfly on Oct. 28 and 30. It was a wonderful production with beautiful costuming. I was invited to photograph the dress rehersal. All shots are candid and none were staged in any way. I hope you enjoy the photos and visit their website at www.sropera.com/

A Little Night Music : The Springfield Regional Opera production of A Little Night Music on Jan. 18-20, 2008. Springfieldian Kim Crosby and the entire cast gave an outstanding performace. These photos were taken during the technical rehersal and were taken under existing lighting. The blurring is from the movement of the actors and the slow shutter speeds. There is noise (little dots on solid surfaces) because the lighting was so low. The skin color may not look natural because the lighting was from about 20 different sources of different colors. I do hope you will overlook these limitations.
