In Pinzolo I struggled a lot with the lights.. they were really different from Courmayeur, so the little I had learnt was almost useless... It was a bit of a drama... I need an Italian manual for my camera!! I can't speak German at all!! Anyway, these are the photos I managed to "save" in the end...
PRACTICES
Afanasieva/Dack mounting the big cube...
Alessandro de Leonardis (if it wasn't for him, this show wouldn't exist... THANK YOU!!!)
an all-Italian line
Silvia...
....laughing - Ilia and Vakhtang were irresistible that afternoon!
?? serious???
...no!...
Ilia is actually practicing, but Vakhtang imitates his poses...
now he's working too...
almost a gymnast!
they're really having a fun time!
Mauri, visiting that night,
jokes with the technicians
Valentina Marchei checks her props...
THE SHOW
how cute those little penguins are?!!
a lift for G&G in the opening
Fede and Massi's show costumes
Vakhtang's samba
aaargh... my back aches
just looking at this...
G&G's Adagio
Leonova/Kavalkho
I took the same pic in Cormayeur... it looked better with the fake mountains...
This night it was Valentina Marchei...
...who skated to "Big Spender"
IT'S TIME FOR THE CLIPS!
At this stop I managed to take less photos of Fede and Massi because I chose to take a short video clip of part of their new exhibition...
(and so my camera was busy recording first, then I lost a bit of time changing back to the photo settings)
Here are the first seconds - just to give you the idea of what that white cocoon seen in my Courmayeur photos is.
While HERE you get the beginning of the program, once they get out of the white "thing", till the first lift.
the final pose
bye!!
ready to go... sigh!
Vakhtang's cool number
Silvia is always beautiful...
G&G and their 04 OD again..
Ilia is serious!
no stripping this time?

A big kiss to both of you from her!
