Like a bow hunter, I am frugal with my arrows. (Not counting the flowers which are digi) I shoot one roll of 24 frames each week, most weeks. ---------------- In a message dated 9/9/2005 4:58:31 P.M.

It's one of those scenes of low light where one applies... "show no fear you can see it, so shoot it!" :-) And without question to hell with the rules and regulations in the books that say, " you shouldn't do it because the light balance etc wont be correct!" Quite frankly bull shit on the books. Because we shoot real life and light capturing the mood and beautiful moments that otherwise would be lost forever!! ;-) Can't beat that Noctilux when in a show no fear shoot situation! Sorts out the fearless photographer from the " oooohhhhh dear me it's way to dark in here I'll use flash!" Then of course they blow the exposure and completely destroy the motivation for shooting the picture in the first place... "The beautiful light and people." Good on you mate! ted Regards, Sonny http://www.sonc.com Natchitoches, Louisiana Oldest continuous settlement in La Louisiane ?galit?, libert?, crawfish
