Michael,
Thank you for your kind words. Yes, this was hand held. I am constantly surprised by the quality of this inexpensive lens (50mm f/1.8). I happened to see this show with a private party, so there were not too many people. Fortunately, I was able to manage a few shots without getting the backs of other people's heads in them.
Regards,
Ilene
Hello again Ilene. This is an incredible shot. I know that because three years ago I set in those stands trying to get a decent image. I failed miserably. Today, I believe I know enough to do much better, but how did you get such a high quality slow shutter speed shot, taking the photo from those stands. Considering the crowds, using a tripod, if not prohibited there, would be suicidal. Could that possibly be a hand held shot! Really nice work. Regards, again, Michael.
