Concert Photography: Trans-Siberian Orchestra at Target Center 12/27/2005

Trans-Siberian Orchestra

DATE: December 27, 2005

VENUE: Target Center -- Minneapolis, MN

Due to the specific wishes of Trans-Siberian Orchestra, the following photos may not be used elsewhere in print or online without prior approval. Feel free to use the photos for personal, noncommercial use (e.g. desktop pictures). All other photo use requests must be submitted to me, the copyright holder. That's the deal, okay?

These photos were shot HANDHELD (!) on a Canon EOS 20D digital SLR camera, without flash, using a Canon 70-200L 2.8 USM IS (image-stabilized) telephoto zoom lens and a Canon 16-35L 2.8 USM wide-angle zoom lens. I've provided three different sizes of each image. Specific shooting data is included for each photo. Note that two focal lengths are listed; the first is what is reported by the camera, the second is the effective focal length once you figure in the 20D's 1.6x crop factor. Post-processing (white balancing, color correction, sharpening) was done in Canon Digital Photo Professional.

A huge thank-you to Adam Lind/Night Castle Management for arranging my photography of this show!
