Thank you Oliver and Chastity! #2887426Susan Williams June 12, 2006
beautiful Penny, I can hear the music! #2887432Lavone Vannoy June 12, 2006
AWESOME shot, Penny! Stage photography is quite difficult. I've shot with the same 1600 ISO for Ballets. It is wonderful when you get a good shot. Perfect moment and GREAT angle! The color is mesmerizing. BRAVO! #2887732Sue L. Cullumber June 12, 2006
Penny, Very nice. Great colors! Did you also use flash with the 1600 ISO or without? #2887994Janine Russell June 12, 2006
Penny, excellent colors, detail, clarity, lighting and DOF. #2888034Kay E. Mahoney June 12, 2006
Nice capture. Love the colors. #2888199Penny Haviland June 12, 2006
Wow! Thank you everyone for your kind words. Flash photography wasn't allowed for this event. These little ladies stood still just long enough as if to wait for me to take the shot. The Minolta 7D also has the non-jiggle feature. Wasn't necessary to bring a tripod. Great fun! #2888380Susan L. Vasquez July 05, 2006
What I'm amazed about is you were able to shoot at 1600ISO and get such a clean image...no NOISE! WOW! I only wish my Nikon would do that well.Donna La Mattino Pagakis July 05, 2006
