Description

Back home in Seattle for a short stint, I took this shot in the parking lot of my nieces dance school. She's 8 and loves Irish Dancing. I was done with the dance shoot so I went out into the parking lot in search of a shot like this. The colored water is a layer of motor oil lifted by the rain. Aperture Priority f/2.8, ISO 800, 80-200 @ 200mm

Exif: F Number: 2.8, Exposure Bias Value: +0, Exposure Time: 10/2500, Flash: flash did not fire, ISO: 800, White Balance: auto white balance, Focal Length: 200mm, Camera Model: NIKON D80
