ballroom photography

The ballroom competition at Northwestern was this past weekend. It had its, shall we say quirks? but it was a good time nonetheless. Seriously, an entire day of ballroom—what's not to like?

My own dear camera is incapacitated for the time being, so I got to use my mumsy dearest's, which was not to my particular liking, but it sufficed. The biggest problem was that her memory card is a quarter the size of mine, a fact of which I was not aware beforehand. It was rather disconcerting when, about an hour into the morning's events, I suddenly ran out of room on the memory stick and had to start deleting pictures right and left. It made the final culling process shorter, I suppose, but it also meant that I missed some lovely photo opportunities because I was busy sorting through the last handful I'd taken, always hovering at less than a dozen photos short of capacity. Ah well. I got a Facebook album's worth of good ones, at least. You can see them here, if you're interested (it's a public link, so you don't have to have a Facebook to see them _[Mom]).

And now I'm going to go do some homework. Really.
