Really liked trying to capture the movements of the swishy skirts at the Fiestas Patrias. Trying to balance a shutter speed fast enough to capture the dancers while trying to give movement to the cloth was fun. :)

#1 and #3 are fantastic, Donald. Not sure I could catch the timing so well using film. Did you refer to the LCD often?

Thanks guys! Misha - Nope. The only time I really use the LCD is when I get to a new area where the lighting is different, I'll take a few shots and look at the histograms and images to see where my settings should be. Then I just shoot like it's a film camera. Every now and then I may check a few shots to make sure my settings are still good. -=>Donald
