Pushing my envelope to cover the Northern Arizona Celtic Festival. It is a challenging spot for me. I am trying to balance my philosophy of shooting for what I see and what the client wants. More, taking shots for their needs, more taking of people shots, even asking many of those who where there to pose for me (not very comfortable with this yet), making adjustments on the fly and doing a great deal of praying and a fair amount of chimping. I learned recently that the action of checking you view screen after a shot is referred to as 'chimping' a term coined by Photographer Bryan Peterson.
Back again today for a full day of shooting so I will post a quick one and catch up with comments starting Monday. Grateful for your patience. Have great weekend.
@henrir This young man was the only guy competing and he really was concentrating. @thistle I think he did. It is a lot of work to do dance like that. @quietpurplehaze I wonder what they call us when we do something silly? @moviegal1 Thank you so much. @tstb13 Thank you a great deal. @golftragic Some of the other dancers had their 'stage moms' around, he was very sure of himself. @jaybutterfield I'm in awe of the dancer's coordination- me I'd be on my bum from the get go. @haskar Thank you so much.
