Festival Urbaka in Limoges

[Chataignier]

Every year Limoges hosts the festival of street theatre "Urbaka". I photographed these dancers late on Thursday evening in the square in front of the cathedral. Dreadfully difficult conditions - I was at a distance, needing 100-150mm tele to get a reasonably filled frame but in very poor light. Even wide open at f4 and ISO 3200 I was only getting 1/100s and this for fast moving dance. Still - I like a challenge !
Great dancers ! More than 30mins of a non-stop fast moving jazz/ballet/modern mix. Company called Uppercut.










Missed the focus a bit on this one, but I liked the postures



I followed the dancers after the performance and persuaded them to pose in the doorway of the cathedral :
