Thanks to LEE for inviting me to the event and camera clearance. Thanks to Nina for getting me the guest list and camera clearance before Lee took over the guest list. Thanks to Johhny for confirm on camera clearance. Only 3 photographers allowed in that night. This guy must be worth big.

These are a selection of the more than 1000photos shot that night. Half of them i shot in RAW just to see if will make a difference... it did, especially on the darker shots, grain was fine and colors were much more vivid. Already forgot i was in RAW until i saw my 4G card was down to 50 shots.... now i see why Erwin (Digicamwhore) uses a 8G card.

If your here, you can grab ur own photo but please do link back and leave word of what you got. Will be sending photos to Johhny Verse and Nina so maybe you can check out their sites if they post them.

thank you for all the people who gamely posed and gave they happy smiles for the camera that night. One body/lens set-up. 30D, 17-40L f4.0, 580ex bare, off-shoe flash cord, some shots with tripd (got a new Manfrotto lite 715B that is so light and easy to bring).
