Daughter L teaches modern dance. She wanted me to take pics at one of her rehearsals for the big earthdancers show**. First time I've used the Pentax in this situation. Really had to bump up the ISO to 800 & 1600 for some. Ran them through Noiseware, but I'm generally pleased. All of them hand held, natural light, Av mode around f 4-5. No signed releases, so the faces are blocked.
A faster lens would have been SO much nicer! Perhaps a fixed aperture one or a variable? I'm so lens-challenged! Any suggestions?
Tell me what you think!
**p.s. Those are my pics on the earthdancers website!

Wow! What fun shots! Love the perspective on a lot of these, especially the first one! :-) They look great!
(Oh...and I haven't got that Pentax remote in the mail yet, but I'm going to! Promise.)
I don't know about lenses either but I do know that the pictures in b + w are very cool shots.
very nice shots! the angles are great and i love your conversions!
Great captures.
Hey, Debb!
I like this as a series. My favorite is the second one- I like the perspective and the lovely soft, muted coloring.
I like your conversions, too.
I love the B&W photos!
I think the conversions in these looks good. I don't know anything about Pentax lenses so I'm no help, but...don't see a ton of noise eventhuough you had to up the ISO quite high. What little noise there is, really seems to enhance these particular shots. Nice job.
What great shots. Love the different positions. Great job
great pictures. Looks like you really got right down there to get those shots! I like the conversions too!
