The last time I had taken out the camera for practice was when I went to watch the kiddos swimming lessons. We were in a large indoor pool, I was far away on the bleachers, the kids were moving fast, and I was trying to capture fun moments = high ISO.
Yesterday, I spent the day with a bunch on elementary school kids while they spent the day in a beautiful church. I would only be busy playing piano for a tiny part of the time. Great photo op.
I forgot to change the ISO, and now all the pictures are grainy. BOO!
At least I can give myself props for knowing what my mistake was.

P.S. I found this photo interesting. I usually really prefer faces, but this one captured the spirit of the event for me. (These girls were way to excited to be together, out of school for the day, and having fun to really give their best attention to the director.) Plus, since I don't have explicit permission from the girls to post their photos to the blogosphere, I didn't choose one that clearly showed faces.
