For the past two years there's been a weekly dance in SF called The Rent Party.
Lindy hop in one room, Blues in another. For various reasons, they decided to
close up shop and last night was their final night, with two live bands.
The lindy room had a couple of lights in the middle of the room aimed at the
floor, but the musicians were primarily illuminated by a couple of lights aimed
at the wall behind them. The blues room was light by four clamp lights, with
red bulbs bounced off the walls. Two of which were behind the musicians.
I also didn't want to use flash, because it's rather obnoxious when you're
dancing in a dark room to have a strobe go off in your face. So, all in all,
the lighting was quite challenging. There were a few shots where I just took
the bad lighting and tried to see what I could do with it, pushing it even
further over the edge in post processing.
Not everything is quite as sharp as I'd like, but I think I got some fun shots
out of it:

Too Many Photos?
Got it in one. :)
Actually, it's only partly TMP: I am irked by the poor behaviour of the
Flickriver presentation when the number of shots is large. I try to
scroll and the Javascript starts its clumsy machinations -- scrolling
drunkenly back and forth while attempting to preload a bunch of large
images.
I find I'm happier with the trad grid thumbnail layout these days. I can
browse the thumbs and choose a couple to inspect. If I like what I see I
will walk through more of the gallery. Flickriver (and all the other
"infinite-list" brethren) doesn't give you that option. Either you wait
for all the fullsize images to load or you get nothing.
Rant over -- sorry.
I do like LRC24079, LRC24113 and LRC24175.
