I sat in the back row so that I would not bother anyone when I raised my arms to shoot. My camera has a tilt down screen so I was able to compose from a sitting position, and the absolute silent shutter let me get the shot off while the altar boys were lighting the candles, which was a very quiet moment with no movement. The only manipulation was a small amount of noise control in Lightroom, some cropping and burning of shiny bald heads in the foreground in PhotoShop. ;-) I've always loved the ability to shoot in the dark, and I'm enjoying these modern sensors that let me shoot what I see.
