Christmas Carol by Joppa Dance and Theatre in the Open in Newburyport

The lovely Joppa Dance members were very willing posers, some even gave me their very best blue steel impressions. Shooting during the performance allowed me to really test the impressive high ISO settings on my 5DmkII since the lighting matched the color of old Ebinezer Scrooge's heart, fairly dark, and for safety reasons it is best not to use flash during a performance. I was pleased with the overall lack of noise produced in the images resulting from these high settings that I would normally never use at a wedding. Bravo Canon...Bravo.

Most moving moment I have seen so far!

all day long I kept trying to find Nonna expressing some level of emotion. Finally during the Mother-Son dance, I didn't have to look very hard. Jim and his mom danced to Andrea Bocelli's "the prayer". The power of the music was incredible in and of itself, but then as the music crescendoed, Nonna couldn't keep her emotions hidden any more. She got up from her seat and came to the center of the dance floor and embraced her grandson and her daughter. A day's worth of emotion flooded her face all in a moment. There was not a dry eye in the house.
