Default Moon walking at school concert ..........

On Wednesday night I went to see my grandaughters perform their parts in the Adventure School Concert. It involved all 370 children at the school. The show was for 90 minutes and the highlight was three boys doing some moon walking and dancing like Michael Jackson - brilliant. The costumes for all the kids were fabulous - a lot of work was put into these as can be seen from the fotos.

Here is an example of some of the shots I captured with my Nikon D300 + 70-200mm VR lense. Some shots were taken without the SB600 flash and all were at high ISO ratings.

What do you think?

You did a brilliant job at capturing the colours of the fabulous costumes and the expressions on the perfomers faces. These are all fantastic shots and so are the others on your flickr.
