Leicester Comedy Festival 2017 - Canon 5DII + Canon 70-200mm f2.8 IS USM L

Last weekend we took a trip to Leicester.

It was the final weekend of the Leicester Comedy Festival and my old school friend Chris was performing his stand up routine in the Leicester Brewdog venue.

I've known Chris since for over 40 yrs and it was only recently that he took up stand up comedy performing and this was his longest set to date.

Chris was performing with his writing partner Kevin, they were performing their show Punchlining above their weight.


I volunteered to take some photos at the gig. I took along one of my trusty Canon 5DII's and the more recently acquired Canon 70-200mm f2.8 IS USM L lens. 

This was the first time I'd used the 70-200 f2.8 on an actual shoot and it didn't let me down, I shot wide open at ISO3200. I'm really pleased with the resulting images. 

Chris and Kevin were both very funny as well.
