That was our A1 image for today. We received exactly ONE phone call on it at 7:58 AM from a grumpy old man asking why we were putting porn in the newspaper and suggesting that the gentleman was "doing her from behind."
The 2nd Annual Dancing with the Athens Stars was held Monday night as part of a fundraiser to benefit the local ProjectSafe. I drew the straw this time and I got to work it.
Nicely lit but 250/3200 ISO for a stage show.... eh. I would have expected more powerful lights. Also tried out the MB-D10 battery grip for the first time and experience a real 8 frames a second. Its really overkill but for baseball later this week, it should help even more.

The highlight of the show was the stage debut of ACCPD Sgt. Courtney Gale, whom is still rehabbing from injuries from a brutal attack she received while in uniform in December 2007.
All in all, a good time had by all. I tried the catwalk shots and they didn't work - people never looked up.
