The one thing I am learning is to always try and be prepared. Tonight, a group of people showed up to sing christmas songs outside. Very dark, poor lighting and didn't have a very fast lens on my camera. Shot this at 1600ISO wit my 17-85 lens on my Canon Eos20D with flash. Not the best in the world but I thought it kind of captured the Christmas spirit here in American Samoa.

Not bad at all. Looks like you caught it quite well.

Looks warm (the weather that is). Good capture.

Nothing warms my heart like the sound of children singing.
Nice catch!

Thanks guys.... I think it was a chilly 83F degrees outside (freezing).:) I'm 40 years old, grew up in Hawaii and have spent the rest of my life in various places in Micronesia and the South Pacific. I have never seen snow before and hope one day to have a "White Christmas"
