Ballet Class

Last week, when I took my daughter to her ballet class, I brought my camera along and asked permission to take photos of the children. It was quite challenge as the light levels were quite low and the children fast moving, so I was working at ISO 1600 and 3200 with an f2.8 lens, but my new Sony A700 did an excellent job, with a bit of noise reduction in lightroom the picture quality looked great.

I got a bunch of 6x4s printed and took them along this week to hand out to the parents. The best thing was watching two parents lightheartedly fighting over which photos of their kids they would keep.

This photo is of my youngest, daughter Christina having fun with one of the assistants. ISO1600 f2.8 1/160s
