Last night it was our Sixth Form Ball, and head boy wanted me to be the 'official' photographer. Had a really fun night, but I'm feeling ROUGH. I've never done anything like this before, but I'm quite pleased with the results, and everyone else was really happy with them! I also realised that the Sigma 18-50 F3.5-5.6 DC lens is not good, to put it politely, and so money from prints may well go towards a wide prime or something like a Canon 20-35. The photos were taken with the Stigma or 28-135, 10D and a 550EX. C&C is welcomed!

8. This boy is so quiet and studious in school, but he had too much and was very keen to show off his dancing talent.

Early for a sxth form ball isnt it, or is it your Christmas ball.

Good photos by the way. Looks like you stayed sober enough to compose some photographs.
