I'm back after a very consuming stretch at work.

Our church had a "Dance Through the Decades" a couple of weeks before 
Christmas, and I was asked to arrange a photo booth--something I hadn't done before. 
Bruce W and Larry generously offered advice and instructions. Without time to buy and 
become facile with new equipment, though, I had to improvise.

For a backdrop I used a well-wrinkled bedsheet, with a hand-painted picture of 
a Christmas tree (by a fellow congregant and chorister) hung in front of it. 
The lighting was my wirelessly slaved Sigma flash (mounted on a tripod) firing 
into a projection screen to my left; augmented by the popup flash on my K-5 
(set to master). The lens was my FA 24-90.

It worked swimmingly. This is one shot from the evening:

Comments appreciated!

They look good.  I bet you learned a lot from the experience too.

#63 is a lot of fun

Time to start scoping out cheap gear for next year.
