Gracie the Ballerina

Posted in PhotoBlogging
So if you read yesterday's post about the challenges of taking photographs in the girl's ballet studio, add to that today that Gracie was standing behind a cement pillar in the middle of the room and I could hardly see her at all. And add to that that Gracie's class had many more students (and bigger ones) than Millie's. It was really hard to get any of her.

Stretching.


I had to shoot into the mirror to get this shot of her doing her arabesque. I couldn't see her otherwise. Her left arm really isn't 3 feet longer than her right. Promise.


So graceful. The little girl in all black in the front is REALLY, REALLY talented!


Doing her chasse arabesque with a partner. (doh! Motion blur!)


At the end of class. They were watching one of the little boys perform on his own.


That's all for now!

May. 17, 2008 - too many questions!

Posted by Didi
these are great pictures! what camera are you using? I think you bumped it up since your XT? Do you shoot in raw? Did you use any flash on those? Your color looks great, I just know I would have wonky color issues in there... I've tried it at my daughter dance class... Not good. :-P

Thank you for your comments, ladies! :)

Didi- those were taken with the 40D. Nope, I don't shoot RAW- too much post-processing for me. And nope, no flash was used!

Love, Alyssa
