Here's a few from a dance performance I shot. It was mostly ballet but there were some other dance groups (hip hop) that participated in the production as well. I had to crank the ISO and shoot at 2.8 to get anything at all so they are what they are. But they ARE colorful!

Thanks everyone for the kind words. I do enjoy performance shooting. Unfortunately I still have about a bazillion to go through. I'm posting the gallery on my smugmug for the parents and other interested parties. If there are any. In spite of the photography ban (I was "official") every other audience member had a camera, and some were so brazen to even set up tripods or shimmy right up to the stage to shoot.

Great pics - what lens did you use?
