Singing in the rain


It rained all day here today.  And I forgot to bring my umbrella to school.  So I got re-wet as I walked to each class.  4 times.

Aside from that, I shot a dress rehearsal for a dance concert tonight, and
 was quite pleased with the resulting chemistry between my camera and the wonderful people on stage.  They just clicked.  I didn't even see that pun coming, so I doubt any of you did.

  4. I really like the funky middle one, with the creative exposure zooming. Those are fun to play with. Where did you get the 70-200 f/2.8? I'm trying to save up for one myself.

  5. I got it used on ebay for around $450. I think it retails new for around $800-900, so it was a pretty good deal.
