Hi feli,

Classic  images... 1-3-4-5. Nothing wrong with 2 even though interesting, it 
just doesn't have the same visual impact as the others.

What I like about the candle light vigil images is they are by "candle 
light" and whatever ambient light happens to be kicking around. So often 
I've been assigned to a candle light vigil and there they are people 
flashing away destroyting the beautiful effects of the candle light. It's 
like, what don't you understand in "Candle Light?"

Or along come the TV crew and "LIGHT BLAST IT UP!" like daylight. :-(

I'd like to do one with the 20D at 3200 because at that ASA speed (or 
whatever the correct name is in digital) one could really shoot for minimal 
light effect. Certainly in the eyes for tears and effects.

Number 1 is a situation I always keep an eye for because people do this, 
"lean back" thing around the world and it's amazing how far some can lean 
back without falling over. Instead of taking one step back and it's easier. 
However if they all started stepping back imagine all the interesting 
pictures we'd lose! :-)
