Last Thursday, my brohemus Dave White, and I headed on down to THEMUSEUM (rebranded THEMoSEUM for the night) to chill out at the end of Movember celebration: KW Movember Ball. And by “chill out” I mean “get our party freak on and shoot photos”.
Many thanks to Mr. Karl Allen-Muncey, the CuteGecko and a local instigator of good Movember mischief aimed at raising money for and visibility on men’s health. Karl put out the invite and we picked it up with gusto. And had a blast!
Many many photographs follow. Several of them are in focus. Our real focus was the fun. Dave was shooting a 17-50mm f2.8 for wide shots and I was on the 70-200mm f2.8 for deets. Ambient light only: no flash. Very Francis Bacon-esque. Click through and enjoy. And comment. Please.
Extra points for head adornment.

5 minutes in and I saw this. You know it’s going to be good when…
Snacks!
I shoulda mentioned: the theme was “bust out your Hollywood best”. Hence, costumes.
Art auction for charity. Dave bid on this and was promptly outbid. Who made each of these pieces?
Christine Reid rockin’ the camera, too. Check out her work.
Konstable Karl.

Word.
The photobooth was very popular.
The stairs and levels of THEMUSEUM allowed for lots of different POVs.
Brendan looking very responsible.
Inevitable.
Even the cowboys were shootin’.
Good mix, DJ.

Kick-ass party, KW style.
Happy making… the community you want to live in.

Awesome pics Guys! (I knew they were awesome when I read “5 minutes in and I saw this. You know it’s going to be good when…”)
I think the focus here was definitely the fun 😉 Well done, yet again!
Hey Darin,
I take back everything I said about MOVEMBER being overdone! That party looks like it was a blast. Thanks for taking me there!
