Nice shot. Beautiful color, nice frame. My daughter plays with the Michigan State University Philharmonic. I shot a few pics from my seat with Superia 1600, my Leica IIIf and a 135 Hektor, but that camera is whisper quiet. I'd love to get some shots off a tripod with the *istD and big glass but I'm afraid it's too noisy. And my daughter is very shy. She'd probably faint dead away if she saw dad out there with a 400mm lens <g>.
