Taken in the parking lot of the old Red Hook Brewery. The Troll-a-go-go took place inside a little bit later.

Went for a slower shutter speed, trying to catch the motion of the fire. Wanna try more shots like this, plus doing some second curtain sync with flash. Would probably be cool. -=>Donald

The #4 (slower one) really seems to capture the excitement!

Nice. I like the first one because of the lighting it provides for her face and because of her aggressive stance. How long was the shutter open? Film speed? Wide open aperature?

Wivel: Did someone at least put him out? :) TEdzo - Quit lookin' at me like that, yer making me nervous. :) Zarth: Shot with digital camera, all 4 handheld and ISO 800 with following shutter speeds and apertures: 1st - 1/8th Sec @ f/4.0 2nd - 1/10th Sec @ f/4.0 3rd - 1/15th Sec @ f/4.0 4th - 1/2 Sec @ f/4.5 -=>Donald

Yes indeed, he was put out. You can see his Brother rushing in from the side. Just a nice melted piece of man made frabric was the only casualty. Taking note of your camera settings there. Should have had the forethought to switch mine to ISO 800 I suppose...but then I was on my 4th Tequila, Vodka and Redbull cocktail by then so it's a small miricle I got any half decent shots.... By the way Donald, really love your piccies you post here. I'm only an occasional photographer, but seeing pictures here by you and the others is inspiration to make those that I do take, as good as I can. Thanks :) :) Have fun! :D
