Thanks for the comments, all.
Bindii - the lighting at this particular show was pretty good although you need to be aware of the intensity variation at different stages of runway but that is easy with just adjusting your exposure as a
model moves down runway. Generally, the exposure is never uniform throughout runway whatever the show one shoots, but that's half the fun

WB can be a bigger problem if mixed lighting is used but this show was pretty good.
Bruce: This particular festival is not exactly "high-fashion". Motorola is mostly consumer brands, but it's fun anyway.
Wayne: Sorry for not turning up to 8.30. I thought I'd sneak in for the earlier show as it suits me better with not having to hang around for several hours after work. The 6.30 had a decent crowd but I was lucky to get a prime channel 9 spot which wasn't used last night.
Thanks
Alex
