Band Camp Extras: professionally taken studio photos.

Hello people! In case you people think that we are dead this blog is dead, NO, IT'S NOT the case! Just that we have too many ongoing activities that we have not much time to do any updates to the blog! (:

Anyway, here are some smexy pictures taken of the MJCSB double reed players [be it old or new] during the MJCSB 2009 Band Camp: Vivace (:

Anyway, the backgrounds are mostly blue, because we were trying to create a "studio" feel.

Do enjoy our artistic pictures!

Disclaimer: No animals/insects were harmed during the making of this pictorial series.


the "not so oboe" oboists...

3 bassoonists, and a percussionist on the phone.

Nice right, taken by CHRISTINE (:

Before going to the "studio"...

A decision to test out the studio first.
