I always enjoy photographing theatre pieces a little bit more than anything else that I do. This one involved some of my favourite artists from many different mediums of theatre, costumes, stage design, acting, dancing, and lighting design. The real star of this photograph is probably Óli Stefánsson, the lighting designer. He was the one who came up with the idea to flood the stage with sodium vapour flood lights. The effect is such that the only visible light on the spectrum is the yellow/orange wavelength. and the resulting photograph has almost no post work done to it — I added a +5,+10 -10 -5 contrast S-curve and that’s about it. Of course every photo is the result of a lot of people’s work and in this one, we see a lot of brilliant people coming together to make something stunning.
