Day 4 was my final day of shooting for the MN Fringe Festival. I’ve had a great time so far and I didn’t expect the last day to be any different, and it wasn’t. I was back at the Rarig Thrust Theater for my final show of this years festival looking forward to shooting “The Red Tureen.” Another shoot at the Thrust meant more time with my Sigma 70-200mm F2.8 lens, and once again it didn’t disappoint me. I don’t use that lens a ton in everyday shooting but it has come in more than handy at many a concert or event that I’ve had to photograph. Below are my last set of 2009 Fringe Festival Images.

Day 3 of my MN Fringe Festival shooting took me outside to the parking lot of the Bedlam Theater, and to the show “Comedy of Errors.” It was a fun show to shoot and I was able to walk pretty much anywhere except right up in front of the audience. After that, it was off to the Rarig Thrust Theater again to shoot “Secrets Revealed: Opera Bob Opens His Drawers,” which was something completely new to me never having seen an opera. Below are some of the images from that nights performances.

Not much different from shooting day 1 of the MN Fringe Festival. All the shows were in the same theater as the previous night so I knew pretty much what settings I was going to need for day 2. On day 2, I shot a total of 3 different shows, “The Sleuth Sisters,” “The Harty Boys in: The Case of the Limping Platypus,” and “Sideways Stories from Wayside School.”

Again all of the images were taken with a Canon 40D with a Sigma 70-200mm F2.8 at ISO 1000.
