Title: Spooks
Post by: RSL on January 18, 2017, 10:22:14 am

I was shooting a rehearsal for a play. At this point the conditions were almost impossible. The room was dark and the D750 was running at ISO 12,800, f/4.0 and 1/20 second. But the result surprised me.

ISO 12.8K.

It is a brave new world.

I think the photo will have more impact if you crop out the right-hand part of the frame. But don't lose the Florida state flag.

Now that's an ambiguous photograph!

Certainly a little difficult to catch convincingly on hand-held Kodachrome 64!

Truly wild!
It's almost right for the Abstract thread.  ;)

Right, Bob. It's an amazing new world in photography. I don't agree about the crop though. I think the table with the trinkets -- especially the teddy bear -- is an important part of the ambiguity.
