That's a very interesting and unusual image, despite the pretty girls.
<G> I like the way you dealt with the very bright areas ad the dark
areas, without totally losing anything. Even the head of hair in the
lower left, while perhaps a bit distracting, adds depth to the scene
and implies more action than can be shown in the frame.
Thanks Dan. I used a little more technique than "spray and pray" but not much.
As with fire dancers, this is one case where I use the autoexposure with the AF540. I
just expose for the lights, and fill with the flash. I bumped the ISO up to 800 so I
could bounce the flash and not get too beaten up too bad by inverse square blowing out
the people in the foreground.
The composition may have been purely luck, as I took a lot of the shots with
the camera over my head so I could get a clear shot past the crowds watching.
But, as has been discussed, I'm still immature enough in my photographic
development that I still consider pretty girls to be a feature, rather than a
bug.

too start looking for suitable LBDs and Fendi heels. Unless it's for

I've got the sinking feeling that photos of pretty girls is a level of
mediocrity that I'm never going to rise above.
As a matter of fact, I spent the evening tonight at the Santa Cruz Museum of
Art and History, and what did I end up taking photos of?
