9 to 5

My awesome friend, MB, won tickets through FB to the Fabulous Fox Theater for 9 to 5 The Musical. What a fun show and so full of energy. It really brought me back to the era when that song was popular. We had great seats in the "Facebook nook". The most exciting part was that they came over during intermission with the announcement that we were invited to the cast party after the show! So exciting! We were hobnobbing with the theater folk. Ok..actually we sat at a table and gawked while wondering "who" was "who". The Dolly Parton part was played by Diana Degarmo of American Idol fame and we did get to talk to her and take pictures. I think it was the closest I've been to a "star". You never know what may happen when you're with MB. So glad she's my friend.
Picture of the Day:
This was on the elaborate brass doorplate at the theater. It reminded me of what I'm doing now....pushing through. MB helped me set the flash so it wasn't out of control. I've already learned some helpful things about my camera and composition through this challenge-ish. Not sure about that streak through the pic. Guess you can't learn everything at once.

  1. Sounds like you guys had a great time! How can you not have a good time at the FOX. That place is awe inspiring. Glad you went out and got some yaya time.

    Nice idea for the picture. Keep pushing through!

  2. I LOVE the photo...not just for shine & glitz of the photo but also for the symbolic meaning.

  3. I'm so happy you went with me :) It was an awesome night!
    Your picture is cool- both for the meaning and the lighting. I think the streak must have been a reflection moving across the sign as you took the picture- your shutter speed was probably a little slower and caught the streak.
    (Either that or it's more golden light following you around...not sure)

  4. Sounds like so much fun, as soon as I read your title the song started to play in my head.

    Love the photo, but it appears your gold light is emulating into your pictures girl!!! Keep on shining,
