Ballet Proformance

Well because of the camera settings challenges I was able to figure out a setting to use in the very dimly lit concert hall. Flash of course was forbidden and I wanted to freeze action as well. I was pleased with how this turned out.

Please enlarge this photo for better viewing.
Very impressed. You rose to the challenge! Great focus and love how you caught them in the air (apart from the girl on the right - she won't be so happy) and cool reflections too!

I would be pleased to. Well done

Nice one! I'm so impressed by your camera's ISO speed! And a little bite jealous. Mine stops at 1600 and is really noisy at that ISO. Great shot.

Wonderful how you've captured them in mid-leap! 8)

Wonderful capture. I know how difficult it is to capture anything in that dim light and you seem to have perfected it! Everything about this picture is amazing!

You did great!! I know this lighting is tough and you did it well!!!

Nice action low-light capture. We all are learning how to use our cameras

you did it, nice shot
June 1st, 2012  
beautiful capture
June 1st, 2012  
Great capture!

Oh yay, you did get some shots. This is great and well done you for figuring out the settings. I took some a couple of weeks ago at a dance recital and due to my entry level camera I didn't have much room to move with the settings. It can be a big challenge.
June 1st, 2012  
good capture, especially without a flash!!
June 1st, 2012  
Nice work. You are totally getting the hang of this new camera!

Beautiful shot Kathy. Colors, composition and ofcourse the frozen action. This is another example of a shot you couldn't have made with your former compact camera. Thes high ISO's are just available for recent years. Every two years there is another jump in high-ISO quality. Enjoy!
June 1st, 2012  
nicely done
June 1st, 2012

@vaugdds I don't know if you are following the camera settings challenge but this is now the new challenge, setting your camera when the lighting is low. I am excited about these challenges since I am learning so much.
June 2nd, 2012  
Good job! I like how you caught them leaping into the air.
June 2nd, 2012  
Really great action shot - perfect timing!
June 2nd, 2012  
Yes, you should be pleased. Good work!

wow, such a clear photo with great tones & detail in low-light. I really admire the way you've taken the bull by the horns with this new camera & harnessed all that it can allow you to do.
