Before and After



I took both of these photos of my daughter in the play Oliver Twist. They were both taken under dark theater lighting. The first one- (the before), I took in full auto mode with a flash. The second one, I took in full manual mode without a flash.
I love the difference the manual settings make!
Photo at right: ISO 1250, f5.6, SS. 50

Jennifer,
I can totally tell the difference in the settings! The second photo is so much richer in color. I love the way she is embracing him and the sweetness of her face. WELL DONE!!

I love the interpretation of before and after. I didn't think that direction at all. It really is amazing how much better the second picture is taking on manual.

Wow, what a difference! Manual sure is a better way to go when you want a more dramatic photo. You did a great job achieving that in your second picture.

Yes I agree with everyone the 2nd picture is so much warmer and richer in color than the first. So dramatic. I love the 2nd one.
