Low light

Well my Minimalism entry is just about holding its head above water. My Fill The Frame entry on the other hand is sunk. 80 votes, average 4.4, 5 comments including one DNMC, one overprocessed IMO, plus the wonderful 'This is hard to enjoy' !!! I shall treasure that one. And I really like the picture and it came out just how I planned it. Before I started this PAD I would have been quite upset but now I'm really not. Votes. Who needs them ?

This is Chris. I was playing about at ISO1600 to see how well my new camera does in low light and I am really pleased with this. I know there is a little motion blur but it was really dark. This is the first time in living memory that anyone has pointed a camera at Chris and he hasn't immediately responded by getting his arse out. I think he knows I am a sensitive soul. To make up for it I did get a few shots of him picking his nose. I may post them tomorrow.

Edit for clarification - When I said Chris usually sees the camera and gets his arse out, this seems to have been interpreted as meaning that he gets angry. What I meant was that he literally gets his arse out. It's just something he does.

I think I can understand Chris. I hate taking pictures of myself.

I hate those tight DNMC-bastards that just don't get my artistic masterpieces!
