Those are excellent, Lewy!
I really love the one of Marilyn and the GTP.
Can I ask how you get the black background on some of them? |

Thanks! The black background is natural really - Shot in a low lit room with a low Fstop where possible no or little flash... It's hard with corns and kings as they are quite fast moving and end up quite blurry, I've found setting the ISO to about 600 and shooting with the lowest Fstop possible with the lens (open the apature as wide as it will let you) seems to get better results, sometimes the blacks end up more brown if the ISO is too low. It's hard to explain, if you can get the background dark enough you can always burn out to black when processing afterwards.
The one of Marilyn was at the old venue of York rep night - the lighting in there was perfect for shots like this... I find the new pub to be a little too bright to get shots like these. |

they're sometimes up to 7-8 photos all stitched together to make one.
I like the outcome but at takes lots of photos (and time stitching) to get them right |

A Canon 350d Digital SLR for most - Although sun girl and most of the older ones are on a 6mega pixel traveller pocket camera, Sungirl was shot through a pair of tinted glasses to make it look warm, worked well. |
