I’ve mentioned that Daughter Dearest is in her high school’s Chamber Chorus, a high-talent group that competes on a national level. They get rather busy this time of year. First, they opened the tree-lighting event in town Friday night.
Sunday evening, they sang at the Governor’s Mansion open-house — they were in the ballroom, the prime location (even though the local TV stations taped the chorus that sang outside). The kids got a fair amount of face time with Planetary Governor Bok-Bok as well. A couple of photos:
Gov. Perdue and the choir. I want a yellow sweater like his!
Daughter Dearest and the gov. I got shots of several of the other kids as well, since they couldn’t bring their parents and were told to leave their cameras inside. Fortunately for them, I thought to do another white-balance; I had been shooting with ambient light & switched to flash for the close-ups. I have got to get a white card from the camera shop so we don’t have to worry about finding a white wall or tablecloth or something...
We were there to tape and photograph; I’ll post some Google Video links once I comb through what we took of both events. Now that I’m back at work, I hope I’ll have it ready for Friday Night Cinema — but if I get it done earlier, I’ll post earlier.

I have comment moderation on for posts over a week old, but that’s so I’ll see them.

What a wonderful experience for your daughter! Congratulations to the entire chorus...
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to seeing more pics!
Thats a really nice photo of her and the Gov. She's really growing up.
ReplyDeleteThe last time I was at your site, you were talking about how your daughter auditioned for that choir. I am glad to see that she made it.
