nerves of steel

Uploaded: January 23, 2005

Description


This was my daughter's first gymnastics competition. She is the brunette in front. No flash photography was allowed and it was a rainy day so very little natural light was coming into the warehouse. I chose an aperture of f4.5 because I wanted to blur the ugly background. The camera chose 1/80 for the shutter speed and I upped the ISO to 1600 to make up for the lack of light (focal length here 80mm)

BetterPhoto Websites: If you see an orange website link directly under the photographer's name, it's totally okay. It's not spam. The reason: BetterPhoto is the one that offers these personal photography websites. We are supporting our clients with those links.

Unavailable EXIF: If there is no other information but 'Unavailable' in the EXIF (meaning no EXIF data exists with the photo), the 'Unavailable' blurb is not displayed. If there is any info, it shows. Many photos have the EXIF stripped out when people modify the image and resave it, before uploading.

I hear, I forget.
I see, I remember.
I do, I understand.
