Wear a damn mask

Mask up, folks!
I did this photo fortheleavenkc of a choir director singing, to show why churches aren’t allowing song at services. This was her singing after about a ½ hour of us talking and setting up, so she hadn’t had anything to drink for at least 30 minutes. I did some pictures of her talking in German before the singing, so I could be sure to see spittle fly, as I was working on my lighting. So even if you’re not singing around your friends or even speaking German, the English hard D, G & T will still make this happen. Mask up when you’re out — do it for those around you, and remember that they are doing it for you.
Mask up because you might be an asympomatic carrier and you’re spreading it to others without knowing it, just by talking, singing or breathing.

Edited to add some info about the photo:
For this shot, I needed to backlight Mary Jo, to best show what comes out of her mouth when singing. A backlight with a dark background helps the spray to be seen effectively. I positioned a strobe under and behind her, about 10 feet away and a bit to my left. It lights the subject fairly unevenly, which is why Mary Jo is bright on her left side and not as bright on the her right side of her face. But there was enough bounce and ambient light to light her on her right side, that it worked. That’s why I shot at a high ISO, to capture ambient and bounce light.
Shot on a Canon 5DIV 1000 ISO at 1/200 f/2.8 with a 70-200 lens at 145mm.
I also lit and shot this in such a way that I could be socially distanced.
