To: wc_v. Thanks for the comment. Metering was tough because the lighting was always changing. Aperture priority tended to want to over-expose anything in a spotlight, so if I used that mode I used EV -.7. I wound up taking most of the shots in ISO 400, Auto-Program. The f2.X / 1/30 second limit worked out to be a good maximum exposure. The church was very foggy for lighting effect, that made alot of the pictures noisy and soft; somehow this one turned out OK. I'll be posting a gallery of others later this week if you'd like to see some other shots. Thanks!

Beautifully shot. An expressive moment captured so well. Good one. Ann C

Looks like you waited for just the right moment. Nicely composed, too. Out of curiosity, how did you meter for the shot?
