Endemic to performance venues. (Flash wudda worked.) Guess we could call it a mood shot & go with it. Sca (talk) 20:45, 2 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • At 135mm, from this distance, the photographer would have needed a very strong flash. I doubt the venue would have allowed that. (Also, managing the light for flash in the field is quite difficult, particularly if the lighting changes rapidly). — Chris Woodrich (talk) 23:15, 2 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Aesthetically I don't think it matters anyway that those elements are not in focus. You could even argue that it adds to the interest of the shot. 81.152.230.168 (talk) 23:07, 9 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
