Challenge: Grace (Classic Editing)
Camera: Sony DSC-F717
Location: A Church
Date: Oct 24, 2003
Aperture: F/2.4
ISO: ISO-800
Shutter: 1/30 sec.
Galleries: Interior, Performance
Date Uploaded: Oct 28, 2003

This was shot in a church using very low light, thus the reason for grain. I wanted to capture the event and I had to go for ISO-800. I suspect that this will score low due to the grain. Used a tripod.

Crop, resize.

Wow, imagine how great this shot would've been if you'd been able to set up these young women against the background of your choosing!

Nice form, but a bit dark for my taste. Well on target for the challenge.

The image is so dark one can hardly see the graceful body movements. Of course I don't know the circumstances, but if it would have been possible to get the three ladies in aroom with more light and without any background elements, it would have been a lot better.

This could have been a really good shot, but I think it's too dark...

Definitely graceful but the backround is distracting.

Very graceful poses. A lot of noise; it helps soften the image but the colors are a bit distracting. The background is very distracting (although I understand you didn't have a lot of control over it).

Good portrayal of contest theme. Difficult lighting situation handled well.

underexposed. use PS to expose it better if you have no other lighting choices.
The photo is very busy...while dancers can convey graceful motion, this shot isn't helped by the plants, the chairs, and the other surrounding items.

Interesting, but a little bit too dark. and I am missing the leg of the first dancer and the chairs at the bottom are bothering me. THank you, BIliana

a bit dark, but being live in a church, it happens. Great interpretation though.

A little dark and the blacks are starting to go grainy, but good interpretation of being graceful. I like the composition.
