w52.32.1: Bhajans

Had a chance to shoot pictures for my friend (on Friday) who had Pooja & Bhajans at his home. He is an Ayyappan devotee who is observing 41 days fasting.

Shot this as my friend’s daughter was singing bhajans.

On a side note, I had a chance to put my hands on full frame Nikon D700 and some nice lens (Nikon 70-200mm f/2.8) on Friday. Another friend of mine, who had bought these recently was nice enough to let me shoot with his gear. It was a nice experience handling D700 – given the fact that  I had to shoot at extreme low lights. I was amazed on how I could bump up to 6400 ISO with minimal noise.

For now I’ll be shooting with my D70, but I will keep on dreaming 😉

      Thanks Bindu. Had a chance to play with a friend’s “fine” zoom lens for this portrait shot of friend’s daughter and it did turn out very well. Excellent glass – if I could only afford 😉

    Lovely shot, perfectly composed as usual. I think you would have done equally well with your regular camera. Some moments we capture transcend technical image quality, and this is one of them.
